Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence and functional expression of the GABA A receptor shows a ligand-gated receptor super-family

TL;DR: Amino-acid sequences derived from complementary DMAs encoding the α- and β-subunits of the GAB A/ benzo diazepine receptor from bovine brain show homology with other ligand-gated receptor subunits, suggesting that there is a super-family of ion-channel-containing receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The molecular basis of muscular dystrophy in the mdx mouse: a point mutation

TL;DR: Sequence analysis of the amplification products showed that the mdx mouse has a single base substitution within an exon, which causes premature termination of the polypeptide chain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural and functional basis for GABAA receptor heterogeneity.

TL;DR: Two additional cDNAs encoding two additional GABAA receptor α-subunits are isolated, confirming the heterogeneous nature of the receptor/chloride channel complex and demonstrating the molecular basis for it.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular biology of the GABAA receptor: the receptor/channel superfamily

TL;DR: Complementary DNAs encoding the two subunit types of the brain GABA A receptor have been cloned, revealing its full protein primary structure and it is illuminating to compare these sequences and those of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Escherichia coli K12. Nucleotide sequence encoding the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase component.

TL;DR: The nucleotide sequence of the aceF gene, which encodes the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase component (E2) of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex of Escherichia coli K12, has been determined using the dideoxy chain-termination method and supports conclusions that the acetyl transferase subunit possesses two heterologous domains.
