Primary structure, developmental expression and functional properties of an inward rectifier K+ channel of the tunicate.

Receptors & channels - 1 Jan 2001

Murata Y, Okado H, Katsuyama Y, Okamura Y, Kubo Y

Abstract excerpt

A cDNA encoding for a tunicate inward rectifier K+ channel (TuIRK) was isolated. TuIRK exhibited the highest similarity (approximately 50%) with mammalian Kir2 (IRK) subfamily. Maternal RNA of TuIRK was detected by RT-PCR in unfertilized eggs. By in situ hybridization, the transcript was observed at the 32-cell stage, restricted at the 64-cell stage in anterior epidermal cells of a4-2 blastomere lineage, and...
