Abstract
High resolution (‘giga-seal’) patch clamp recording in Xenopus oocytes was used to measure single channel currents from ACh- and GABA-activated receptors. The proteins that make up these receptors had been translated from mRNA derived from, respectively, denervated cat muscle and chick optic lobe.Keywords
