Slow‐channel mutation in acetylcholine receptor αM4 domain and its efficient knockdown
9 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify the genetic basis of a slow-channel myasthenic syndrome, characterize functional properties of the mutant receptor, and selectively silence the mutant allele. METHODS: We performed nutation analysis, cloning, and patch-clamp analysis of the functional properties of the mutant receptor; screening for a small interfering RNA with check plasmid; and assessed of the efficacy of small...
