1 Recombinant human ras p21 GAP (GTPase activating protein) at subnanomolar concentrations inhibited GTP-dependent channel opening in isolated atrial cell membranes. Guanosine Triphosphate H3 histone pseudogene 16 Homo sapiens
2 We therefore propose that ras p21 GTP complexed with GAP (ras p21-GAP) blocks K+[ACh] currents. Guanosine Triphosphate H3 histone pseudogene 16 Homo sapiens
3 We therefore propose that ras p21 GTP complexed with GAP (ras p21-GAP) blocks K+[ACh] currents. Guanosine Triphosphate H3 histone pseudogene 16 Homo sapiens
4 The channel block could be overcome by GTP gamma S activation of endogenous Gk; this indicates that ras p21-GAP does not interfere with interaction of Gk with the K+[ACh] channel directly, but prevents coupling of the muscarinic receptor to endogenous Gk. Guanosine Triphosphate H3 histone pseudogene 16 Homo sapiens
