Function | Isoform 1: Upon acetylcholine binding, the AChR responds by an extensive change in conformation that affects all subunits and leads to opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. Isoform 2: Non functional acetylcholine receptor alpha subunit which is not integrated into functional acetylcholine-gated cation-selective channels. |
