Genetic manipulation of cardiac K(+) channel function in mice: what have we learned, and where do we go from here?

abstract：:The subcellular distribution of cardiac muscarinic receptors was defined in canine ventricular myocardium, and receptors were solubilized from subcellular fractions enriched in muscarinic receptor content. The subcellular location of muscarinic receptors in cardiac tissue was determined by measurement of the distribut...
