Saturation of ΔpH-dependent gating occurs independently of loss of proton selectivity of Trp207 mutants. The mean ± SEM (error bars) change in Vrev for a 1-U change in pH is plotted for WT hHV1 (closed blue circles) and for W207X (open blue circles). The shift in VgH,max/10 in the same cells is also plotted for WT hHV1 (closed red squares) and for W207X (open red squares). Numbers of cells for both parameters are one, six, eight, and five for increasing pHo in WT; one, six, and eight for increasing pHi in WT; one, five, 11, six, and three for increasing pHo in W207X; and one and four for increasing pHi in W207X. The difference in Vrev in W207X versus WT was significant at pHo 7–8 (P < 0.02) and 8–9 (P < 0.001). The difference in VgH,max/10 in W207X versus WT was significant at pHo 6–7 (P < 0.02) and 7–8 (P < 0.0001).
