Mutations affecting the delayed rectifier potassium current in Drosophila.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations and pharmacological agents have been used to resolve and analyze several K(+) currents in Drosophila. Mutations that affect channels carrying the voltage-activated I(A) and the Ca(2+) -activated I(CF) have helped greatly in analyzing the structure, function and regulation of these channels. We now report mutations that selectively affect the delayed rectifier current, I(K). Flies mutagenized with...
