Title: Patch fluorometry: shedding new light on ion channels. Author: Zheng J. Journal: Physiology (Bethesda); 2006 Feb; 21():6-12. PubMed ID: 16443817. Abstract: Patch fluorometry has emerged as a new approach to the study of the structure-function relationship in membrane-embedded functional ion channels. Simultaneous fluorescent and electrical recordings are achieved from a small number of channels in a cell-free membrane patch, yielding high recording sensitivities. Further improvement of this approach should permit direct observation of the gating motion of a single-channel protein.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
