Xenopus borealis as an alternative source of oocytes for biophysical and pharmacological studies of neuronal ion channels

For the past 30 years, oocytes from Xenopus laevis have been extensively used to express and characterise ion channels in an easily controlled environment. Here we report the first use of oocytes from the closely related species Xenopus borealis as an alternative expression system for neuronal ion c...
