Abstract

Glycine receptor，acetylcholine receptor and voltage dependent ion channels expressed in amphibian oocytes after injection of chicken retinal mRNA were studied by using voltage clamp technique. The current response to glycine was proved as small， and the acetylcholine receptor was identified as N type. Aspartate，serotonin and dopamine induced no responses. In addition，voltage dependent ion channels were detected，and were identified as delayed rectifier potassium channel and sodium channel.

Key words: chicken retina; glycine receptor;acetylcholine receptor;ion channel;mRNA expression
