Abstract excerpt
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene 1 (hERG1) encodes the pore-forming subunit of the rapidly activating delayed rectifier potassium channel. Several hERG1 isoforms with different N- and C-terminal ends have been identified. The hERG1a, hERG1b, and hERG1-3.1 isoforms contain the full-length C terminus, whereas the hERG1(USO) isoforms, hERG1a(USO) and hERG1b(USO), lack most of the C-terminal domain and contain a...
