Abstract excerpt
1. Voltage-gated Na+ channels undergo two types of inactivation in response to depolarization. One type, fast inactivation, occurs with a time scale of milliseconds. The other, slow inactivation, occurs over seconds to minutes. In addition, these two processes appear to be distinct at the molecular level. However, the molecular mechanism of Na+ channel slow inactivation is unknown. 2. We used patch clamp...
