Selected traces showing ion current fluctuations through an open α-HL pore, due to reversible pore blockades by CP2a polypeptides added to the trans chamber at a bulk concentration of 5 μM, measured at ΔV = + 70 mV (panel a), ΔV = + 90 mV (panel b) and ΔV = + 100 mV (panel c). The panels next to the ion current traces display the scatter plot distribution of current blockade vs. inter-events and blockade-events durations associated to the peptide-α-HL interactions, showing that the increase in the holding potential leads concomitantly to a decrease of the inter-events time intervals (τ_on; ‘open’) and an increase of the blockade-events durations (τ_off; ‘blocked’).
