The first was the finding that the electric organ of a fish that produces an electric pulse to stun its prey, such as Torpedo, expresses nAChRs at densities that approach a crystalline array (245, 438). This provided an unprecedented source of starting material for receptor purification since nAChRs comprise 40% of the protein from this organ.
