Assembly and Cell Surface Expression of Heteromeric and Homomeric γ-Aminobutyric Acid Type A Receptors
Open accessAbstract
The ability of differing subunit combinations of gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors produced from murine alpha 1, beta 2, and gamma 2L subunits to form functional cell surface receptors was analyzed in both A293 cells and Xenopus oocytes using a combination of molecular, electrophysiological, biochemical, and morphological approaches. The results revealed that GABAA receptor assembly occurred within the endoplasmic reticulum and involved the interaction with the chaperone molecules immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein and calnexin. Despite all three subunits possessing the ability to oligomerize with each other, only alpha 1 beta 2 and alpha 1 beta 2 gamma 2L subunit combinations could produce functional surface expression in a process that was not dependent on N-linked glycosylation. Single subunits and the alpha 1 gamma 2L and beta 2 gamma 2L combinations were retained within the endoplasmic reticulum. These results suggest that receptor assembly occurs by defined pathways, which may serve to limit the diversity of GABAA receptors that exist on the surface of neurons.

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.
