Conformational transitions and allosteric modulation in a heteromeric glycine receptor

Glycine receptors (GlyR) are a critical postsynaptic component of spinal neurons. Here, the auhtors present cryo-EM structures of a heteromeric GlyR in the presence of an antagonist, agonist and agonist with a positive allosteric modulator.
