Activation and inhibition of K-ATP currents by guanine nucleotides is mediated by different channel subunits.

abstract：:Increased clouds and precipitation normally decrease the diurnal temperature range (DTR) and thus have commonly been offered as explanation for the trend of reduced DTR observed for many land areas over the last several decades. Observations show, however, that the DTR was reduced most in dry regions and especially in...
