Differential expression of KvLQT1 isoforms across the human ventricular wall
1 Jun 2000
Abstract excerpt
Long Q-T mutant (KvLQT1) K(+) channels associate with their regulatory subunit IsK to produce the slow component of the delayed rectifier potassium (I(Ks)) cardiac current. The amplitude of KvLQT1 current depends on the expression of a KvLQT1 splice variant (isoform 2) that exerts strong dominant negative effects on the full-length KvLQT1 protein (isoform 1). We used RNase protection assays to determine the...
