ABSTRACT:
The invention provides isolated nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of KCNQ5, antibodies to KCNQ5, methods of detecting KCNQ5, methods of screening for potassium channel activators and inhibitors using biologically active KCNQ5, and kits for screening for activators and inhibitors of voltage-gated potassium channels comprising KCNQ5.
