Table 1. Nonlinear Regression Parameters for Glycine Activation of α1 GlyRsa and Double-Mutant Cycle Analysis Resultsb.
α1 GlyR | EC50 (mM) | nH | Imax (μA) | Ωb |
---|---|---|---|---|
WT | 0.04 ± 0.01 | 2.0 ± 0.1 | 6.5 ± 0.7 | |
R271C | 6.8 ± 0.47c | 1.5 ± 0.1 | 1.8 ± 0.3c | |
Q226C | 4.7 ± 0.59c | 1.6 ± 0.5 | 1.6 ± 0.7c | |
R271C/Q226C | 3.4 ± 0.67c | 1.3 ± 0.1 | 2.2 ± 0.4c | 4.3 × 10–3 |
All values are means ± SEM from three to seven experiments.
The coupling coefficient, Ω, was calculated with the equation Ω = (EC50,WT × EC50,R271C/Q226C)/(EC50,R271C × EC50,Q226C).
Significantly different from the WT value for that parameter (P < 0.001, ANOVA with Tukey post hoc analysis).
