Sequence and Novel Distribution of the Chicken Homologue of the Mammalianγ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptorγ1 Subunit (1993)
Journal Article
Glencorse, T. A., Darlison, M. G., Barnard, E. A., & Bateson, A. N. (1993). Sequence and Novel Distribution of the Chicken Homologue of the Mammalianγ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptorγ1 Subunit. Journal of Neurochemistry, 61(6), 2294-2302. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1471-4159.1993.tb07473.x

cDNAs have been cloned that encode the chicken (Gallus domesticus) γ-aminobutyric acidA receptor γ1 subunit, the mature sequence of which shares 90, 79, and 69% identity with those of the rat γ1, γ2., and γ3 subunits, respectively. In situ hybridizat... Read More about Sequence and Novel Distribution of the Chicken Homologue of the Mammalianγ-Aminobutyric AcidAReceptorγ1 Subunit.

Molluscan ligand-gated ion-channel receptors (1993)
Book Chapter
Darlison, M. G., Hutton, M. L., & Harvey, R. J. (1993). Molluscan ligand-gated ion-channel receptors. In Comparative Molecular Neurobiology (48-64). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-0348-7265-2_3

In this chapter we introduce the reader to the structures of the different types of ligand-gated ion-channel receptor, and the numerous receptor subtypes that have recently been revealed to exist, in both invertebrate and vertebrate species, by the a...

Molecular cloning reveals the existence of a fourth γ subunit of the vertebrate brain GABAAreceptor (1993)
Journal Article
Harvey, R. J., Kim, H.-C., & Darlison, M. G. (1993). Molecular cloning reveals the existence of a fourth γ subunit of the vertebrate brain GABAAreceptor. FEBS Letters, 331(3), 211-216. https://doi.org/10.1016/0014-5793%2893%2980339-v

We have isolated a cDNA, from the chicken, that encodes a fourth type of γ subunit of the vertebrate brain GABAA receptor. The mature polypeptide (which we name γ4) displays 67%, 69% and 70% identity, respectively, to the rat γ1, γ2 and γ3 subunits....

Rheological spectroscopy of concentrated colloidal dispersions (1993)
Journal Article
Williams, P., Williams, D., & Williams, R. (1993). Rheological spectroscopy of concentrated colloidal dispersions. Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 77(1), 75-79. https://doi.org/10.1016/0927-7757%2893%2980101-j

A new instrument, the virtual gap rheometer (VGR) for the determination of dynamic shear moduli (and mechanical relaxation spectra therefrom) at frequencies above 100 Hz is described. Several features of the VGR which make it particularly suited to t... Read More about Rheological spectroscopy of concentrated colloidal dispersions.

A novel invertebrate GABAAreceptor-like polypeptide Sequence and pattern of gene expression (1993)
Journal Article
Hutton, M. L., Harvey, R. J., Earley, F. G., Barnard, E. A., & Darlison, M. G. (1993). A novel invertebrate GABAAreceptor-like polypeptide Sequence and pattern of gene expression. FEBS Letters, 326(1-3), 112-116. https://doi.org/10.1016/0014-5793%2893%2981773-s

A full‐length complementary DNA has been isolated, from the fresh‐water mollusc Lymnaea stagnalis, that encodes a polypeptide (which we have named Ç) that exhibits between 30% and 40% identity to vertebrate GABAA and glycine receptor subunit sequence...

Molecular Characterisation and Functional Expression of Molluscan Ion-Channel Receptors That Can Be Activated By Either γ-Aminobutyric Acid or L-Glutamate (1993)
Journal Article
Darlison, M. G., Bermudez, I., Van Minnen, J., Zimmermann, C., Amar, M., Dautzenberg, F. M., Kim, H.-C., Stühmer, T., & Harvey, R. J. (1993). Molecular Characterisation and Functional Expression of Molluscan Ion-Channel Receptors That Can Be Activated By Either γ-Aminobutyric Acid or L-Glutamate. Netherlands Journal of Zoology, 44(3), 473-485. https://doi.org/10.1163/156854293x00557

Ligand-gated ion channels (also called ionotropic receptors) are a class of receptors which possess an intrinsic ion pore, selective for either cations or anions, that can be opened by the binding of an appropriate neurotransmitter. Ionotropic recept... Read More about Molecular Characterisation and Functional Expression of Molluscan Ion-Channel Receptors That Can Be Activated By Either γ-Aminobutyric Acid or L-Glutamate.
