Primary structure and functional expression of a high voltage activated calcium channel from rabbit lung

FEBS Lett. 1990 Sep 3;269(2):409-12. doi: 10.1016/0014-5793(90)81205-3.

Abstract

The complete amino acid sequence of the receptor for organic calcium channel blockers (CaCB) from rabbit lung has been deduced by cloning and sequence analysis of the cDNA. Synthetic RNA derived from this cDNA induces the formation of a functional CaCB-sensitive high voltage activated calcium channel in Xenopus oocytes.
