Abstract excerpt
Hyperprostaglandin E syndrome/antenatal Bartter syndrome (HPS/aBS) is a severe salt-losing renal tubular disorder and results from the mutation of renal outer medullary K(+) (ROMK1) channels. The aberrant ROMK1 function induces alterations in intracellular pH (pH(i)) gating under physiological conditions. We investigate the role of protein kinase A (PKA) in the pH(i) gating of ROMK1 channels. Using giant patch...
