  • Patent number: 7083916
    Abstract: This invention provides isolated nucleic acid molecules which encode inward rectifier, G-protein activated, mammalian, potassium KGA channel. This invention also provides a nucleic acid molecule of at least 15 nucleotides capable of specifically hybridizing with the above nucleic acid molecule. This invention further provides a vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid molecules which encode inward rectifier, G-protein activated, mammalian, potassium KGA channel. This invention provides a host vector system for the production of a polypeptide having the biological activity of KGA channel which comprises the above vector in a suitable host.

  • Patent number: 5747278
    Abstract: Nucleic acids encoding mammalian "KGA" potassium channels are provided. Vectors and transformed host cells are also provided. The KGA channels exhibit inward rectification and are activated by a G-protein. The products of the invention are useful in screening assays to identify modulators of the KGA channel and in methods for identifying or preparing nucleic acids encoding the KGA channel or related potassium channels.
