The chaperone protein 14-3-3eta interacts with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor alpha 4 subunit. Evidence for a dynamic role in subunit stabilization.

By using the large cytoplasmic domain of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) alpha4 subunit as a bait in the yeast two-hybrid system, we isolated the first cytosolic protein, 14-3-3eta, known to interact directly with neuronal AChRs. 14-3-3eta is a member of a family of proteins that function as regulatory or chaperone/ scaffolding/adaptor proteins. 14-3-3eta interacted with the recombinant alpha4 subunit ...
