Abstract excerpt
Extracellular protons in the range of 10(-9) to 10(-5) M effectively suppressed Na+ current (K(1/2) = 10(-6.1)) through the bovine retinal guanosine 3',5'-cyclic mononucleotide-gated ion channel expressed in Xenopus oocytes. The reduction of channel current was mediated by a single glutamate residue (Glu363) within the pore-forming region of the channel, also involved in extracellular divalent cation binding....
