Abstract excerpt
The Torpedo chloride channel ClC-0 is the prototype of a large family of chloride channels that have roles in transepithelial transport and in regulating electrical excitability and cell volume. ClC-0 opens in bursts with two identical conductance levels of approximately 8pS. Hyperpolarization slowly increases the probability of bursts ('slow gating'), and depolarization increases channel opening within bursts...
