Abstract excerpt

1. A possible relation between the family of inwardly rectifying K+ channels and the Shaker superfamily of K+ channels was investigated using a deletion mutant (DelS1-S4) of a delayed rectifier Kv1.1 (RCK1) K+ channel. 2. The mutant DelS1-S4 was made by eliminating the sequence coding for transme...
