Distinct functional roles for the M4 α-helix from each homologous subunit in the heteropentameric ligand-gated ion channel nAChR
The outermost lipid-exposed α-helix (M4) in each of the homologous α, β, δ, and γ/ε subunits of the muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) has previously been proposed to act as a lipid sensor. However, the mechanism by which this sensor would function is not clear. To explore how the M4 α-...
