Saturation and Microsecond Gating of Current Indicate Depletion-induced Instability of the MaxiK Selectivity Filter
Patch clamp experiments on single MaxiK channels expressed in HEK293 cells were performed with a high temporal resolution (50-kHz filter) in symmetrical solutions with 50, 150, or 400 mM KCl and 2.5 mM CaCl2 and 2.5 mM MgCl2. At membrane potentials >+100 mV, the single-channel current showed a ne...
