Rate constants were estimated from fitting Scheme 1 to global dwell time sequences obtained over a range of CCh concentrations, with errors computed by the MIL program in parenthesis (Materials and methods). Units of the rate constants are µM−1s−1 for association rate constants, and s−1 for all others. The channel gating equilibrium constants (Θn) are βnn, and the dissociation constants (K) are k/k+.

a

Results from analysis of simulated data with experimental fitted parameters as the input.

b

Results from analysis of simulated data with the experimental fitted parameters, except with slower channel opening and closing rate constants (wild type: 100,000/1,900; αG153S: 130,000/2,500).
