Differential Expression of hERG1 Channel Isoforms Reproduces Properties of Native I (Kr) and Modulates Cardiac Action Potential Characteristics

BACKGROUND: The repolarizing cardiac rapid delayed rectifier current, I (Kr), is composed of ERG1 channels. It has been suggested that two isoforms of the ERG1 protein, ERG1a and ERG1b, both contribute to I (Kr). Marked heterogeneity in the kinetic properties of native I (Kr) has been described. We...
