Table 1. Effects of mutations on neurosteroid modulation of [3H]muscimol binding.

EC50, Hill slope and maximal effect values [Emax (% of control): 100% means no effect] for the concentration-response curves in Figure 6B–E. Statistical differences are analyzed using one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni's multiple comparisons test (*p<0.05 vs. WT; **p<0.01 vs. WT). Data are presented as mean ± SEM.
