  • Publication number: 20080227819
    Abstract: A method for identifying the agonistic activity of a target compound on a potassium channel by a) providing a population of cells expressing a potassium channel and, optionally providing, a protein-based fluorescent-optical voltage sensor, b) if necessary, incubating the cells with a voltage-sensitive fluorescent dye, c) adding the target compound to the reaction batch of a) or b), d) determining a value F1 of the fluorescence intensity of the cells, e) adding potassium ions in a physiologically acceptable concentration f) determining a value F2 of the fluorescence intensity of the cells, and g) comparing the fluorescence intensity F2 with the fluorescence intensity F1 and determining the agonistic activity of the target compound on a potassium channel therefrom.
