Abstract excerpt
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel contains 12 transmembrane (TM) regions that are presumed to form the channel pore. However, little is known about the relative functional contribution of different TM regions to the pore. We have used patch clamp recording to investigate the functional consequences of point mutations throughout the six transmembrane regions in the...
