Values are means ± SE of half-maximal potentials (V0.5) of steady-state activation and inactivation from our experiments in guinea pig detrusor smooth muscle (DSM), as well as data from the literature for currents in other species and for homotetrameric KV2.1 and heterotetrameric KV2.1/silent KV channel currents. NA, not available.
