A critical role for zinc in ethanol action at the glycine receptor
Ethanol is a widely used drug, yet an understanding of its sites and mechanisms of action remains incomplete. Among the protein targets of ethanol are glycine receptors (GlyRs). In addition to ethanol, zinc also modulates GlyR function. Although the individual effects of zinc and alcohols on GlyR...
