Cloning and modulation by endothelin-1 of rat cardiac K channel
We have cloned a delayed rectifier type K channel from rat heart (RH1). RH1 was identical to the rat brain K channel BK2 and differed from recently cloned rat cardiac K channel RAK by one amino acid residue. Endothelin receptors(ETRs)-mediated modulation of RH1 current (I RH1) was studied using Xeno...

Zusammenfassung: | We have cloned a delayed rectifier type K channel from rat heart (RH1). RH1 was identical to the rat brain K channel BK2 and differed from recently cloned rat cardiac K channel RAK by one amino acid residue. Endothelin receptors(ETRs)-mediated modulation of RH1 current (I
RH1) was studied using
Xenopus oocyte expression system. Activation of two different subtypes of ETRs by endothelin-1 equally suppressed the amplitude of I
RH1. Stimulation of phosphatidylinositol turnover will probably be responsible for the suppression. |
