Data are represented as mean ± SEM; h, probability that a channel is not inactivated; k(in)act, slope factor of steady-state (in)activation curve; m, probability that the channel is activated; n, number of cells measured; V0.5,(in)act, membrane potential for half-maximal (in)activation. A represents the peak of the Po curve, xc is the voltage below the peak, w1 and w2 represent width for m and h, respectively. τf and τs, fast and slow time constants, respectively; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, or ****P < 0.0001 compared with wild-type, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni correction.
