Figure 3.

Effect of incremental DiC8-PI(4,5)P2 concentrations on homomeric Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 channel activity. (A and B) Examples of multichannel recordings in excised membrane patches from HM1-CHO cells transfected with cDNAs for Kv7.2 and Kv7.3T cDNAs. C, closed state; O1–On, open-state current levels for 1 to n channels, as indicated. Holding potential is 0 mV. (C) Mean (±SEM) single-channel open probability corrected for the number of channels in each patch plotted against DiC8-PI(4,5)P2 concentrations. Triangles represent Kv7.2; squares represent Kv7.3T. Curves show data fits to single-component Hill equations giving the parameters shown. The interrupted line shows the two-component fit from Fig. 2 obtained from K2/3-CHO cells stably expressing Kv7.2 + Kv7.3 subunits.
