This invention provides isolated nucleic acid molecules which encode inward rectifier, G-protein activated, mammalian, potassium KGA channel. This invention also provides a nucleic acid molecule of at least 15 nucleotides capable of specifically hybridizing with the above nucleic acid molecule. This invention further provides a vector comprising the isolated nucleic acid molecules which encode inward rectifier, G-protein activated, mammalian, potassium KGA channel. This invention provides a host vector system for the production of a polypeptide having the biological activity of KGA channel which comprises the above vector in a suitable host. This invention also provides a method for isolating from a sample a nucleic acid molecule encoding an inward rectifier, G-protein activated, potassium channel in a sample which comprises: (a) isolating the nucleic acids from the sample; (b) contacting the isolated nucleic acids with the molecule of at least 15 nucleotides capable of specifically hybridizing with the above nucleic acid molecule which encode inward rectifier, G-protein activated, mammalian, potassium KGA channel under the conditions permitting complex formation between the nucleic acid molecule encoding an inward rectifier, G-protein activated, potassium channel and the nucleic acid molecule of at least 15 nucleotides capable of specifically hybridizing with the above nucleic acid molecule which encode inward rectifier, G-protein activated, mammalian, potassium KGA channel; (c) isolating the complex formed; and (d) separating the nucleic acid molecule encoding an inward rectifier, G-protein activated, potassium channel from the complex, thereby isolating the nucleic acid molecule encoding an inward rectifier, G-protein activated, potassium channel.
