Phosphorylation of α3 glycine receptors induces a conformational change in the glycine-binding site.
Inflammatory pain sensitization is initiated by prostaglandin-induced phosphorylation of α3 glycine receptors (GlyRs) that are specifically located in inhibitory synapses on spinal pain sensory neurons. Phosphorylation reduces the magnitude of glycinergic synaptic currents, thereby disinhibiting nociceptive neurons. Although α1 and α3 subunits are both expressed on spinal nociceptive neurons, α...
متن کاملA comparison of glycine- and ivermectin-mediated conformational changes in the glycine receptor ligand-binding domain.
Glycine receptor chloride channels are Cys-loop receptor proteins that isomerize between a low affinity closed state and a high affinity ion-conducting state. There is currently much interest in understanding the mechanisms that link affinity changes with conductance changes. This essentially involves an agonist binding in the glycine receptor ligand-binding site initiating local conformational...
متن کاملA Selective Role for α3 Subunit Glycine Receptors in Inflammatory Pain
GlyR alpha3 has previously been found to play a critical role in pain hypersensitivity following spinal PGE(2) injection, complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) and zymosan induced peripheral inflammation. In this study, although all models displayed typical phenotypic behaviours, no significant differences were observed when comparing the pain behaviours of Glra3(-/-) and wild-type littermates follo...
متن کاملSerotonin receptor 1A-modulated phosphorylation of glycine receptor α3 controls breathing in mice.
Rhythmic breathing movements originate from a dispersed neuronal network in the medulla and pons. Here, we demonstrate that rhythmic activity of this respiratory network is affected by the phosphorylation status of the inhibitory glycine receptor α3 subtype (GlyRα3), which controls glutamatergic and glycinergic neuronal discharges, subject to serotonergic modulation. Serotonin receptor type 1A-...
متن کاملThe relative orientation of the TM3 and TM4 domains varies between α1 and α3 glycine receptors.
Glycine receptors (GlyRs) are anion-conducting members of the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel family. We previously showed that the dramatic difference in glycine efficacies of α1 and α3 GlyRs is largely attributable to their nonconserved TM4 domains. Because mutation of individual nonconserved TM4 residues had little effect, we concluded that the efficacy difference was a distributed effec...
