Abstract

GABAA receptors possess consensus sequences for phosphorylation by PKC that are located on the presumed intracellular domains of beta and gamma 2 subunits. PKC phosphorylation sites were analyzed using purified receptor subunits and were located on up to 3 serine residues in beta 1 and gamma 2 subunits. The role of phosphorylation in receptor function was studied using recombinant receptors expressed in kidney cells and Xenopus oocytes and was compared with native neuronal GABAA receptors. For recombinant and native GABAA receptors, PKC phosphorylation caused a reduction in the amplitudes of GABA-activated currents without affecting the time constants for current decay. Selective site-directed mutagenesis of the serine residues reduced the effects of phorbol esters and revealed that serine 343 in the gamma 2 subunit exerted the largest effect on the GABA-activated response. These results indicate that PKC phosphorylation can differentially modulate GABAA receptor function.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
