Currents Mediated by Channel Mutants NvNav2.1NvNav2.5(p−loops DEEA) and NvNav2.1NvNav2.5(p−loops DEKA) Expressed in Oocytes, Related to Figure 3
(A) Currents elicited by 500 ms depolarizing pulses from −75 to 50 mV mediated by NvNav2.1NvNav2.5(p−loops DEEA) in ND96 bath solution. Note the large tail currents upon returning to the −80 mV holding potential.
(B) Inward currents elicited by 200 ms depolarizing pulses from −75 to 50 mV mediated by NvNav2.1NvNav2.5(p−loops DEKA) in ND96 bath solution. Note the absence of tail currents (see inset). The Erev value obtained for the current-voltage relations is 19.1 ± 1.6 (n = 6). Each point represents mean ± SEM of n cells.
(C) Currents elicited by 200 ms depolarizing pulses from −90 to 50 mV mediated by NvNav2.1NvNav2.5(p−loops DEKA) in K+ single ion bath solution.
