A channel protein has a molecular weight of approximately 280 kD and is capable of affecting K.sup.+ and Cl.sup.- membrane transport. Furosemide and quinine derivatives, and polysaccharide or monosaccharide gels incorporating such derivatives, are useful in treating membrane transport, cellular volume and cellular pressure disorders and in producing the channel protein. The channel protein is used in diagnostic assays and screening assays is described.
