Functional expression in the Xenopus oocyte of messenger ribonucleic acids encoding brain neurotransmitter receptors: further characterisation of the implanted GABA receptor.
Abstract
The Xenopus oocyte is the only system currently available for the full expression of mRNAS encoding membrane receptors and ion channels. Its application in the case of brain mRNAs for the GABAA receptor is illustrated, including the production of receptor subunits and its chloride channel with characteristic pharmacology.
