Functional expression and properties of the tick α6 homomeric nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in Xenopus laevis oocytes

Recent studies have suggested that the tick Ixodes ricinus expresses nAChR subtypes which are activated by acetylcholine. Here, we investigated the potential of the Iricα6 subunit to form a functional receptor when expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Electrophysiological recordings using a two-elec...
