MTSET was applied at 2 mM to the intracellular side of giant inside-out patches containing the wild-type or mutant channels for 2 or 5 min, depending on the reaction rate to reach the steady-state effect. For V61C and E224C, 20 μM MTSET was used in experiments to determine the reaction rate (the right-hand column). Only reactive channels are shown. Percentage inhibition and the apparent second-order rate constant k were calculated as described in Materials and Methods. ND, not determined, because steady-state inhibition was achieved in 2 min. Data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3–6).
