Abstract excerpt
Members of the rat brain Kv1 family of cloned potassium channels are structurally highly homologous, but have diverse conductance and pharmacological characteristics. Here we present data on the effects of mutating residues K533 in the P-region and H471 in the S4-S5 linker of Kv1.4 to their equiv...
