Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor is composed up '''five distinct subunits''' (shown in figure to left): '''α1''', '''α2''', '''β1''', '''δ''', and '''ε''' at approximately a molecular mass of 290 kDa. The subunits are symmetrically arranged around a central pore. Each subunit is a transmembrane domain with the N-terminus and C-terminus located on the extracellular side of the plasma membrane. Each subunit are composed of long protein chains that extend across the cell membrane. The subunits have a composition of around '''~20%''' <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_475/My_scene_2/1'>beta sheets</scene> and '''~40%''' <scene name='Sandbox_Reserved_475/My_scene/1'>alpha helices</scene> from about ~370 residues in total.<ref name="Refined"/> | Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor is composed up '''five distinct subunits''' (shown in figure to left): '''α1''', '''α2''', '''β1''', '''δ''', and '''ε''' at approximately a molecular mass of 290 kDa.
