A Fluorescent Sensor for GABA and Synthetic GABA(B) Receptor Ligands

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Anastasiya Masharina, Keitaro Umezawa

While gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter, suitable tools to measure its concentration in living cells with high spatiotemporal resolution are missing. Herein, we describe the first ratiometric fluorescent sensor for GABA ...

Probing Odorant-Mediated Receptor Activation

Olivia Baud

Molecular interactions of odorants with their olfactory receptors (ORs) are of central importance for the mammalian olfactory system to detect and discriminate a large variety of odors with a limited set of receptors. How a particular OR binds and distingu ...

Predicting Novel Binding Modes of Agonists to β Adrenergic Receptors Using All-Atom Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Marilisa Neri, Stefano Vanni

Understanding the binding mode of agonists to adrenergic receptors is crucial to enabling improved rational design of new therapeutic agents. However, so far the high conformational flexibility of G protein-coupled receptors has been an obstacle to obtaini ...

Determination of Transmembrane Water Fluxes in Neurons Elicited by Glutamate Ionotropic Receptors and by the Co-transporters KCC2 and NKCC1: A Digital Holographic Microscopy Study

Pierre Magistretti, Christian Depeursinge, Benjamin Rappaz, Pierre Marquet, Nicolas Pavillon, Pascal Jourdain, Daniel Boss, Corinne Moratal

Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) is a noninvasive optical imaging technique that provides quantitative phase images of living cells. In a recent study, we showed that the quantitative monitoring of the phase signal by DHM was a simple label-free method ...

Chloride Ions in the Pore of Glycine and GABA Channels Shape the Time Course and Voltage Dependence of Agonist Currents

Michele Giugliano

In the vertebrate CNS, fast synaptic inhibition is mediated by GABA and glycine receptors. We recently reported that the time course of these synaptic currents is slower when intracellular chloride is high. Here we extend these findings to measure the effe ...

Structure and function of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor

Jörg Grandl

The subject of this thesis is the study of the structure and function of the human muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), which is a typical member of the large class of ligand-gated ion channels. Appropriate techniques, like site-directed mutage ...

Functional characterization of a human odorant receptor

Valérie Jacquier

Olfaction appears to be mediated by a large family of odorant receptors (ORs) that accounts for ~ 1% of the human genome [1–4]. The functional characterization of these receptors has so far been hindered by their poor functional expression in the plasma me ...
