Figure 7. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings demonstrate the effects of time step (Ts) and latency under real-world conditions.
In measurements from CA1 pyramidal cells, we recorded action potentials under control conditions (A) and with virtualized Na+ channels (B). We also introduced long time steps (C) and latencies (D). Effects in experiments were qualitatively similar to those in simulations, but experimental data were more sensitive to inaccuracies than were simulated data from previous figures.
