Abstract excerpt
Expression of transgenic Shaker (Sh) channels has not previously been examined in Drosophila neurons. We studied K+ current by whole-cell recording in cultured "giant" neurons derived from germline transformants. Independent lines were generated by using a P-element vector, in which transcription of the 29-4 cDNA, one of the Sh splicing variants (Iverson and Rudy, 1990), was under the control of a heat shock...
