A***i 发帖数: 50 | 1 Sorry that I cannot type Chinese on this computer.
I have an ion channel gene mutation which was found in an atrial
fibrillation patient. I made the mutated DNA. And in western blot experiment
, the protein level dramatically reduced. In transfected culture cells,
there was no current recorded for the ion using patch clamp.
I wonder what else I can do to make a story out of the mutation. Your help
is highly appreciated! |

also mean this is a dominant negative mutation. Kind of confusing. Which is
or are responsible for the phenotype?
Which ion channel is affected? Put your gene to the whole ion channel story
and make a story. |

If I transfect the mutant alone, see no current in electrophysiology. But if
I transfect the mutant with wt, see no diffence than wt alone. So it is not
dominant negative. But causing atrial fibrillation in human.
is
