Identification of the Ca2+ conductance responsible for K+-induced backward swimming in Paramecium caudatum.

The Journal of membrane biology - 15 Nov 2002

Oami K, Takahashi M

Abstract excerpt

Membrane potential responses of Paramecium caudatum to an application of K+-rich solution were examined to understand the mechanisms underlying K+-induced backward swimming. A wild-type cell impaled by a microelectrode produced action potentials followed by a sustained depolarization in response to an application of a K+-rich test solution. After termination of the application, a prolongation of the...
