Abstract
The invention relates to an isolated or recombinant Na/Hexchanger comprising an isolated or recombinant Na/Hexchanger, particularly to the PBO-4 Na/Hexchanger. Also disclosed is an isolated or recombinant protein component of an H-gated channel which can be affected by extracellular Caconcentration. In particular, the invention relates to PBO-5 and/or PBO-8 and/or a H-gated channel composed of PBO-5 and PBO-8. The invention relates to compounds isolated from a vertebrate organism, wherein said compounds comprise at least a part of a H-gated channel or Na/Hexchanger. The invention also relates to a method for identifying a component of a H-gated channel in a vertebrate organism.
