Voltage-sensitive potassium channels in Drosophila photoreceptors.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 1 Oct 1991

Hardie R C

Abstract excerpt

A preparation of dissociated Drosophila ommatidia is described that allows single-channel and whole-cell patch-clamp analysis of currents in identified sensory neurons. Three distinct classes of voltage-sensitive potassium conductances are characterized; all were detected in distal parts of ommatidia from sevenless mutants and hence in one cell class (R1-6 photoreceptors). Rapidly inactivating A-channels (IA),...
