In GH3/B6 cells at least two different inward K+ currents are observed that are regulated by thyrotropin-releasing hormone and somatostatin, respectively. Using a polymerase chain reaction based approach a cDNA was isolated and functionally expressed in human embryonic kidney cells that encodes an inward rectifier K+ channel, rIRK3, with a predicted molecular mass of 49.7 kDa. Corresponding transcripts of 2.6 kb have been detected in rat brain, pituitary and GH3/B6 cells. In situ hybridization revealed that rIRK3 mRNA is distributed throughout the brain and occurs predominantly in the piriform cortex, indusium griseum, supraoptic nucleus, facial nucleus and cerebellar Purkinje cells.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
