how is postsynaptic muscle mmb organized?
|
jnal folds to increase area and concentrate receptors at the synapse
|
|
what type of receptor is nAChR?
|
channel-linked receptor; binding ACh opens non-selective cation channel for K+ and Na+, increasing gNa/gK = 1.4
|
|
What is Er for nAChR?
|
-15mV
|
|
what does end plate refer to?
|
muscle mmb
|
|
2 competitive inhibitors of nAChR
|
alpha-bungarotoxin (almost irreversible), curare
|
|
what does atropine block
|
high [] - mAChr
low [] - nAChr |
|
e.g. ligand gated ion channel?
|
Serotonin (5-HT) to HT3R
glutamate to glutamic R ATP to P2XR all non-selective cation channel all Er = 0 all these ligands = excitatory |
|
inhibitory ligands?
|
GABA
glycine |
|
which patch clamp methods can be used to study molecular property of channels?
|
outside out and cell attached
|
