Name Change
Wouldn't it be best served to rename this page pentameric Ligand-gated ion channels. Cys-loop is an old phrase and has fallen out of fashion because the discovery of the bacterial pLGICs that do not have the cys-loop — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.126.48.228 (talk) 18:58, 16 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I think that the name is just copied from TCDB 1.A.9 "The Neurotransmitter Receptor, Cys loop, Ligand-gated Ion Channel (LIC) Family" which is three names lumped together. From the description in TCDB it's really LIC = ligand-gated ion channel. And it contains also the pLGICs. --SCIdude (talk) 15:46, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
