All values are presented as mean ± S.E.M. Number of independent transfections >3. Parameters were obtained after fitting normalized (I/Imax) I-V relationships or normalized (I/Imax) steady-state inactivation curves, as described in Methods. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc test (activation) or unpaired Student’s t-test (steady-state inactivation). Significance **, ## p < 0.01, ***, ### p < 0.001 in comparison to WTS (*) or WTL (#) (statistical analysis has been performed separately for long and short splice variants). n, number of experiments; nd, not determined; V0.5, half maximal activation/inactivation voltage; Vrev, reversal potential; WT, wild-type. Note small differences among WT recordings within different sets of experiments (Tables 1, 3 and 5) because WT control experiments were always carried out in parallel with mutated channels. Reference data, which were already published previously, are indicated in italics (taken from reference 10).
