Genomic structure and promoter analysis of the rat kir7.1 potassium channel gene (Kcnj13).

abstract：:Previously determined protein structures have been analysed, in order to find folding motifs similar to that proposed by NMR spectroscopy, for the N-terminal, 14 kDa fragment of the Ada protein. The analyses reveal only limited similarities with the NMR-derived structural data and strongly suggest that this region of ...

abstract：:Using a cDNA library from bovine adrenal medulla, and, subsequently, a bovine genomic library, we have isolated the gene coding for a non inactivating potassium channel. This gene encodes a 597-amino acid protein which we have called BAK5 as its sequence is very similar to members of Kv1.5 potassium channel family. Ne...
