Abstract
Injection into Xenopus oocytes of RNA synthesized in vitro using the rat brain cDNA RCK1 as a template or nuclear injection of the cDNA results in the expression of functional potassium channels. These channels exhibit properties similar to those of the non-inactivating delayed rectifier channel found in mammalian neurons and other excitable cells.Keywords
