serotonin-activated cation-selective channel complex

Definition

Target type: cellularcomponent

A protein complex which is capable of serotonin-activated cation-selective channel activity. Mainly found in pre- and postsynaptic membranes of the brain and gastrointestinal tract. Depending on its location it transports Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ or K+. It is always a pentamer, containing at least the 5HT3A subunit forming 5HT3A homopentamers or 5HT3A/B heteropentamers. In human, 5HT3A/C, A/D and A/E heteropentamers also exist. [GO_REF:0000088, GOC:bhm, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:16116092]

The serotonin-activated cation-selective channel complex, often referred to as the 5-HT3 receptor, is a transmembrane protein complex localized to the plasma membrane of neurons. It plays a crucial role in the rapid transmission of signals across synapses, primarily in the central and peripheral nervous systems. The complex is composed of five subunits, each with distinct domains responsible for different aspects of channel function.

The extracellular domain of the subunits forms the ligand-binding site for serotonin. This site exhibits high affinity for serotonin, ensuring rapid and efficient activation of the channel upon neurotransmitter release. Upon serotonin binding, a conformational change occurs in the transmembrane domains, opening the channel pore. This pore allows the passage of monovalent cations, primarily sodium and potassium ions, down their electrochemical gradient. This influx of ions depolarizes the postsynaptic neuron, initiating the signal transduction process.

The intracellular domains of the subunits interact with various signaling molecules and cytoskeletal elements. These interactions contribute to the regulation of channel activity and trafficking, ensuring proper localization and function of the complex within the neuronal membrane.

The cellular localization of the 5-HT3 receptor complex is critical for its physiological function. Its presence at presynaptic terminals, where serotonin is released, allows for the rapid and efficient activation of the channel, contributing to the modulation of neurotransmitter release. In postsynaptic neurons, the receptor complex mediates the downstream signaling events that contribute to diverse physiological processes, including sensory perception, motor control, and cognition.

Therefore, the serotonin-activated cation-selective channel complex is a dynamic molecular machine with a complex structure and intricate regulation. Its precise localization in the neuronal plasma membrane and its unique properties as a ligand-gated ion channel allow it to play a central role in neuronal signaling, influencing a wide range of physiological functions.'
