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 ommat...
