Abstract excerpt
The phenylalkylamines (-)-D888, verapamil, and D600, cause voltage- and use-dependent block of L-type Ca2+ channels and differ from each other only in the number of methoxy groups on each of their two terminal phenyl rings. To study the effects of mutations in the phenylalkylamine receptor site on block by these drugs, wild-type and mutant Ca2+ channels were transiently expressed in the tsA-201 clone of human...
