  • CNG2B: a novel human cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channel
    Publication number: 20020182691
    Abstract: The invention provides isolated nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of CNG2B, antibodies to CNG2B, methods of detecting CNG2B, and methods of screening for modulators of cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels using biologically active CNG2B. The invention further provides, in a computer system, a method of screening for mutations of human CNG2B genes as well as a method for identifying a three-dimensional structure of human CNG2B polypeptides.
