An asterisk (*) indicates members carrying the Q351X mutation in GABRG2, and a minus sign (−) indicates members who were tested and are negative for the Q351X mutation.

Figure 4 Two-electrode voltage-clamp recordings in oocytes, demonstrating that coexpression of the GABRG2Q351X abolishes the response to GABA. For all recordings, n=6. The current and time scale bars apply to all traces. Holding potential was −80 mV. A, Injection of oocytes with wild-type GABRA1:GABRB2:GABRG2 cRNAs (1:1:10 ratio, to favor assembly of γ subunit–containing complexes), resulting in both a robust inward current response to GABA and a low sensitivity to Zn2+ blockade, characteristic of GABRG2 coexpression. B, Expression of GABRA1:GABRB2 only (1:1 ratio). This also produced robust responses to GABA, but with high sensitivity to blockade by Zn2+. C, Expression of GABRA1:GABRB2:GABRG2Q351X subunits (1:1:10 ratio), abolishing GABA-induced currents.

Figure 5 Imaging of GFP-tagged GABRG2 expressed with GABRA1 and GABRB2 subunits, revealing the fate of GABRG2Q351X-containing receptors in HEK293 cells. Images were obtained by confocal fluorescence microscopy (excitation, 488 nm; emission, >515 nm). The scale bar in panel C corresponds to 5 microns and applies to all three panels. A, EGFP-tagged wild-type GABRG2 subunit, found in both the membrane and the intracellular compartment (n=20 individual cells analyzed). B, EGFP-tagged GABRG2Q351X, found only in the intracellular compartment (n=20 individual cells analyzed). C, ER-targeted EYFP expression, demonstrating subcellular distribution of ER that is remarkably similar to that seen in B.
