Abstract excerpt
The ryanodine receptor of Caenorhabditis elegans (CeRyR) which contains 5,071 amino acid residues, is encoded by a single gene, ryr-1/unc-68. The unc-68(kh30) mutation, isolated in an animal showing abnormal response to the anesthetic ketamine, has the substitution Ser1444Asn in CeRyR, predicted to be a phosphorylation site. To elucidate the function of the region of CeRyR, and to determine the localization of...
