Human 5-HT_3A -- Phe 102

mPhe107Tyr:

5-HT3 F107Y has a lower affinity for 5-HT (Ki = 203 vs 16 nM) and a higher EC(50) value (11 vs 1.2 uM) compared to wild-type receptors.

Activation of maximal 5-HT-activated currents mediated by the mutant receptor was slower than those of the wild-type receptor.

mPhe107Asn

The 5-HT3 F107N mutant has a higher affinity for 5-HT (1.6 vs 16 nM), a reduced EC50 for the agonist (0.2 vs 1.2 uM) compared to wid-type receptors.

The mutant F107N was activated by acetylcholine (EC50 = 260 uM). The response to acetylcholine was blocked by the 5-HT3 antagonist renzapride.
