Interaction between Quaternary Ammonium Ions in the Pore of Potassium Channels: Evidence against an Electrostatic Repulsion Mechanism
We have examined the interaction between internal and external ions in the pore of potassium channels. We found that external tetraethylammonium was able to antagonize block of Shaker channels by internal TEA when the external and internal solutions contained K+ ions. This antagonism was absent in s...
