Unmasking of a novel potassium current in Drosophila by a mutation and drugs.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 15 Aug 1999

Singh A, Singh S

Abstract excerpt

The delayed rectifier potassium current plays a critical role in cellular physiology. This current (I(K)) in Drosophila larvae is believed to be a single current. However, a likely null mutation in the Shab K(+) channel gene (Shab(3)) reduces I(K) but does not eliminate it. This raises a question as to whether or not the entire I(K) passes through channels encoded by one gene. Similarly, an incomplete blockade of...
