Abstract excerpt
A potential role for sialic acid in the voltage-dependent gating of rat skeletal muscle sodium channels (rSkM1) was investigated using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably transfected with rSkM1. Changes in the voltage dependence of channel gating were observed after enzymatic (neuraminidase)...
