3 can participate in the assembly of functional
recombinant receptors. Although
3 is expressed in several areas of
the central nervous system, it does not form functional receptors when
expressed heterologously together with an
or another
nicotinic
subunit. We inserted into the human
3 subunit a reporter mutation
(V273T), which, if incorporated into a functional receptor, would be
expected to increase its agonist sensitivity and maximum response to
partial agonists. Expressing the mutant
3V273T in
Xenopus oocytes together with both the
3 and the
4
subunits resulted in the predicted changes in the properties of the
resulting nicotinic receptor when compared with those of
3
4
receptors. This indicated that some of the receptors incorporated the
mutant
3 subunit, as part of a "triplet"
3
4
3 receptor.
The proportion of triplet receptors was dependent on the ratios of the
3:
4:
3 cRNA injected. We conclude that, like the related
5
subunit, the
3 subunit can form functional receptors only if
expressed together with both
and
subunits.
