Poly(ethylene glycol) as a scaffold for high-affinity open-channel blockers of the mouse nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

High-affinity blockers for an ion channel often have complex molecular structures that are synthetically challenging and/or laborious. Here we show that high-affinity blockers for the mouse nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) can be prepared from a structurally simple material, poly(ethylene gly...
