Mouse muscle epsilon- and gamma-containing acetylcholine receptors expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes do not differ in their degradation half-lives.

???displayArticle.abstract???
Mouse acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) consisting of either the embryonic form (2 alpha, 1 beta, 1 delta and 1 gamma) or the adult form (2 alpha, 1 beta, 1 delta and 1 epsilon) were expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. As expected, the single channel conductance was approximately 52 pS and the exponential decay time constants were 2.2 and 8.2 ms for the gamma-AChR and respectively 65 pS and 0.6 and 2.8 ms for the epsilon-AChR. No difference was seen in the degradation rate between the gamma- and epsilon-containing AChRs, both having a half-life of about 5 days.
