Abstract excerpt
1. We studied the gating kinetics of Kv4.2 channels, the molecular substrate of neuronal somatodendritic A-type currents. For this purpose wild-type and mutant channels were transiently expressed in the human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cell line and currents were measured in the whole-cell patch-clamp configuration. 2. Kv4.2 channels inactivated from pre-open closed state(s) with a mean time constant of 959 ms at...
