Summary
| Description |
English: Schematic diagram of the mechanism of action of ivermectin on the invertebrate glutamate-gated chloride channel receptor (GluClR), a pentameric ligand-gated ion channel. Ivermectin (IVM) interacts with a binding pocket formed by the transmembrane domains of adjacent GluClR subunits, "locking" the receptor in an activated (open) conformation that allows unrestricted passage of chloride (Cl−) ions into the cell. The plasma membrane is represented as a blue–pink gradient.
Français : Représentation schématique du mécanisme d'action de l'ivermectine sur le récepteur du "canal chlorure glutamate-dépendant" chez les invertébrés (GluClR ; un canal ionique pentamérique ligand-dépendant). L'ivermectine (IVM) interagit avec une poche de liaison formée par les domaines transmembranaires des sous-unités GluClR adjacentes, "bloquant" le récepteur dans une conformation activée (ouverte) permettant le passage sans restriction des ions chlorure (Cl-) dans la cellule. La membrane plasmique est représentée par un gradient bleu-rose.
