A point mutation in the γ(2) subunit of γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors results in altered benzodiazepine binding site specificity

Benzodiazepines allosterically modulate γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) evoked chloride currents of γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptors. Coexpression of either rat γ(2) or γ(3), in combination with α(1) and β(2) subunits, results both in receptors displaying high [(3)H]Ro 15-1788 affinity. How...
