Abstract excerpt
We investigated CFTR channel activity of mature R-domain mutants showing single alterations at sites other than the predicted phosphorylation sites. All mutations were found in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients (H620Q, E822K and E826K). The macroscopic CFTR chloride conductance induced by phosphorylation was significantly enhanced in Xenopus oocytes injected with mRNA of H620Q but reduced in the E822K and E826K...
