Journal ArticleDOI

Primary structure of Electrophorus electricus sodium channel deduced from cDNA sequence.

TL;DR: Cloning and sequence analysis of cDNA for the Electrophorus electricus electroplax sodium channel indicate that this protein exhibits four repeated homology units, which are presumably oriented in a pseudosymmetric fashion across the membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular distinction between fetal and adult forms of muscle acetylcholine receptor

TL;DR: The conductance and gating properties of the two classes of channels suggest that replacement of the γ-subunit by the ε- subunit is responsible for the functional alteration of the receptor during muscle development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Augmented humoral and anaphylactic responses in FcγRII-deficient mice

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that FcγRII acts as a general negative regulator of immune-complex-triggered activation in vivo for both the afferent and efferent limbs of the immune response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Costimulatory signals mediated by the ITAM motif cooperate with RANKL for bone homeostasis

TL;DR: It is shown that mice lacking immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-harbouring adaptors, Fc receptor common γ subunit (FcRγ) and DNAX-activating protein (DAP)12, exhibit severe osteopetrosis owing to impaired osteoclast differentiation.
