Regulation of ROMK1 K+ channel activity involves phosphorylation processes.

abstract：:The present work shows that arachidonic acid and some other long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids such as docosahexaenoic acid, which is abundant in fish oil, produce a direct open channel block of the major voltage-dependent K+ channel (Kv1.5) cloned in cardiac cells. The inhibitory action of these selected fatty ac...
