    • Acute activation of Maxi-K channels (hSlo) by estradiol binding to the beta subunit 
      Valverde, Miguel A.; Rojas, Patricio; Amigo, Julio; Cosmelli, Diego; Orio, Patricio; Bahamonde Miranda, María Inés; Mann, Giovanni E.; Vergara Montecinos, Cecilia; Latorre, Ramón (AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 1999-09-17)
      Maxi-K channels consist of a pore-forming alpha subunit and a regulatory beta subunit, which confers the channel with a higher Ca2+ sensitivity. Estradiol bound to the beta subunit and activated the Maxi-K channel (hSlo) ...
    • Expression of the Subunits of Protein Kinase CK2 During Oogenesis in Xenopus laevis 
      Wilhelm, Vivian; Rojas, Patricio; Gatica, Marta; Allende, Catherine C.; Allende, Jorge E. (1995)
      Northern‐blot analysis of RNAs from different tissues demonstrated that the mRNA for the protein kinase CK2α subunit is very abundant in the ovary of Xenopus laevis. The competitive reverse‐PCR technique has been used to ...
    • MAP1B-dependent Rac activation is required for AMPA receptor endocytosis during long-term depression 
      Benoist, Marion; Palenzuela, Rocío; Rozas, Carlos; Rojas, Patricio; Tortosa, Elena; Morales, Bernardo; González Billault, Christian; Avila, Jesús; Esteban, José A. (2013)
      The microtubule-associated protein 1B (MAP1B) plays critical roles in neurite growth and synapse maturation during brain development. This protein is well expressed in the adult brain. However, its function in mature ...
    • Structural determinants for functional coupling between the beta and alpha subunits in the Ca2+-activated ... 
      Orio, Patricio; Torres, Yolima; Rojas, Patricio; Carvacho, Ingrid; García, María L.; Toro, Ligia; Valverde, Miguel A.; Latorre, Ramón (ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2006-02)
      High conductance, calcium- and voltage-activated potassium (BK, MaxiK) channels are widely expressed in mammals. In some tissues, the biophysical properties of BK channels are highly affected by coexpression of regulatory ...
