Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels from an insulin-secreting cell line incorporated into planar lipid bilayers.

This study evaluates the use of the planar lipid bilayer as a functional assay of Ca(2+)-activated K+ channel activity for use in purification of the channel protein. Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels from the plasma membrane of an insulin-secreting hamster Beta-cell line (HIT T15) were incorporated into...
