Simposium 8 : NEW INSIGHTS IN P2X RECEPTOR STRUCTURE- FUNCTION Chairs : Eric Boué-Grabot (Bordeaux, France) / Beata Sperlagh (Budapest, Hungary) Content : ATP-gated P2X receptors are trimeric ion channels selective to cations. In this symposium, we will cover recent advances in the understanding of the structure- function of several members of P2X receptor family in terms of ion permeation, antagonist sites and allosteric modulation.
