Currents through the chimera. (A) Potassium currents evoked by 120-ms depolarizing steps between −80 and +60 mV. The intracellular solution contained 140 mM KCl, the external solution contained 160 mM NaCl. (B) I-V relationship from currents in A. (C) Sodium currents evoked by 200-ms depolarizing steps. Solutions were identical to those in A, except that internal KCl was replaced by NaCl. (D) I-V relationship from currents in C. Currents reversed at the Na⁺ equilibrium potential.
