ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a human delayed rectifier potassium channel subunit (DRPCS) and polynucleotides which identify and encode DRPCS. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, antibodies, agonists, and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for diagnosing, treating or preventing disorders associated with expression of DRPCS.
