Table 1.

Activation time constants at room temperature

Current τ, ms n
Remaining (after Kv1 and Kv2 block) 137 ± 23 6
Linopirdine sensitive (3 μM) 143 ± 19* 16
XE-991 sensitive (0.5–1 μM) 206 ± 34* 11
Muscarine/Oxo sensitive 134 ± 11 8
ScTx sensitive 69 ± 21 4
Kv2.1 antibody sensitive 75 ± 25 4
DTX sensitive 11 ± 1 33

Values are means ± SE (n = no. of cells) for activation time constant τ at −10 mV. Data for current sensitive to stromatoxin (ScTx; putative Kv2 channels) and for current sensitive to intracellular application of a Kv2.1 antibody (Kv2.1 channels) are from Guan et al. 2007a. Data for current sensitive to α-dendrotoxin (DTX; putative Kv1.1, Kv1.2, and Kv1.6 channels) are from Guan et al. 2006. Muscarine/Oxo sensitive, current sensitive to muscarine (0.3–1 μM) or oxotremorine (10 μM).
