Pentameric ligand-gated ion channels exhibit distinct transmembrane domain archetypes for folding/expression and function
Abstract Although transmembrane helix-helix interactions must be strong enough to drive folding, they must still permit the inter-helix movements associated with conformational change. Interactions between the outermost M4 and adjacent M1 and M3 α-helices of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels have...
