title: [Repression of voltage gated K+ channel expressed in Xenopus oocytes after injection total RNA from carp retina by an antisense oligonucleotide].
abstract: Injection of total RNA from carp retina induced the formation of a membrane K+ channel in Xenopus oocytes. We found an oligonucleotide complementary to the mRNA coding for a peptide fragment in the K+ channel of drosophila and mice could suppress the K+ channel current in a very specific manner. This provides important information for the cloning of this gene and for studying it's function.
