Muscle channelopathies and critical points in functional and genetic studies.
The Journal of clinical investigation - 1 Aug 2005

Abstract excerpt
Muscle channelopathies are caused by mutations in ion channel genes, by antibodies directed against ion channel proteins, or by changes of cell homeostasis leading to aberrant splicing of ion channel RNA or to disturbances of modification and localization of channel proteins. As ion channels constitute one of the only protein families that allow functional examination on the molecular level, expression studies of...
