Molecular composition of 4-aminopyridine-sensitive voltage-gated K(+) channels of vascular smooth muscle.

abstract：:Multiple voltage-gated K+ channels contribute to the repolarization phases of the cardiac action potential and are targets of several antiarrhythmic drugs. The Kv1.5 K+ channel gene is expressed in the heart, and heterologous expression of this gene generates a slowly inactivating K+ current. Previously, we found that...
