Effect of Tre-6-P on single channel activity of
reconstituted OEP40.
A, current recording from a bilayer containing
a single active OEP40 channel in response to an applied voltage
gate of Vm = −60 mV in the
absence (top) and presence of 1 mm
Tre-6-P (cis/trans). Symmetrical buffer
conditions (250/250 mm KCl). B,
voltage-dependent open probabilities (n = 3) of
the OEP40 channel in the absence (black square)
and presence of 1 mm Tre-6-P (red
circle) (cis/trans).
C, apparent conductance
Gmax obtained from the maximal
current amplitudes (Imax) at the
given voltages in the absence (black square)
and presence of 1 mm Tre-6-P (red
circle) (n = 3).
D, current-voltage ramp (−80 to 80
mV sweep-rate 15 mV/s) of a single open OEP40 channel in
symmetrical buffer (20/20 mm KCl) in the presence of 1
mm Tre-6-P in the cis compartment.
E, current-voltage ramps (−80 to 80
mV sweep-rate 15 mV/s) of a single open OEP40 channel in
asymmetrical buffer (250/20 mm KCl) in the absence
(upper panel) and presence of 1 mm
Tre-6-P in cis (lower panel).
F, same as E except the
asymmetric 20/100 (cis/trans) KCl buffer
conditions.
