The slow component of gating currents is reduced in the hSlo-D292N channel. (A) Gating current traces for hSlo and hSlo-D292N for a pulse from −50 mV to 150 mV. (B) ON gating currents (inset of A) with τfast = 0.052 ms and τslow = 1.1 ms; the slow component amplitude was reduced from 70% in hSlo to 25% in hSlo-D292N. (C) OFF gating currents (inset of A) with superimposed fits: τfast = 0.022 ms, τmedium = 0.083 ms, τslow = 0.350 ms, for both clones; the relative amplitudes of the components were Afast = 51%, Amedium = 35%, and Aslow = 14% for hSlo, and Afast = 89%, Amedium = 10%, and Aslow = 1% for hslo D292N. Gating current recordings in 120 mM TEAMES and 1.5 μM free Ca2+.
