Structure of the C-terminal tail of alpha-tubulin: increase of heterogeneity from newborn to adult.

abstract：:Three conserved serine residues (Ser193, Ser194, and Ser197) in transmembrane spanning region (TM) V of the D2 dopamine receptor have been mutated to alanine, individually and in combination, to explore their role in ligand binding and G protein coupling. The multiple Ser -->Ala mutations had no effect on the binding ...
