Mouse amyloid protein AA: Homology with nonimmunoglobulin protein of human and monkey amyloid substance.

abstract：:Activation of P2X2 receptor channels by extracellular ATP is thought to play important roles in cochlear adaptation to elevated sound levels and protection from overstimulation. Each subunit of a trimeric P2X2 receptor is composed of intracellular N and C termini, a large extracellular domain containing the ATP bindin...
