Tuning the Voltage Dependence of Tetraethylammonium Block with Permeant Ions in an Inward-Rectifier K+ Channel
To understand the role of permeating ions in determining blocking ion-induced rectification, we examined block of the ROMK1 inward-rectifier K+ channel by intracellular tetraethylammonium in the presence of various alkali metal ions in both the extra- and intracellular solutions. We found that the channel exhibits different degrees of rectification when different alkali metal ions (all at 100 m...
متن کاملNew Insights on the Voltage Dependence of the K Ca 3 . 1 Channel Block by Internal
We present in this work a structural model of the open IKCa (K Ca 3.1) channel derived by homology modeling from the MthK channel structure, and used this model to compute the transmembrane potential profile along the channel pore. This analysis showed that the selectivity filter and the region extending from the channel inner cavity to the internal medium should respectively account for 81% an...

در این رساله t_n - علیت قوی تعریف می شود. این رده ها در جدول علیت فضا- زمان بین علیت پایدار و علیت قوی قرار دارند. یک قضیه برای رده بندی آنها ثابت می شود و t_n- علیت قوی با رده های علی کارتر مقایسه می شود. همچنین ثابت می شود که علیت فشرده پایدار از t_n - علیت قوی نتیجه می شود. بعلاوه به بررسی رابطه نظریه دامنه ها با نسبیت عام می پردازیم و ثابت می کنیم که نوع خاصی از فضا- زمان های علی پایدار, ب...
Open Channel Block by Ca2+ Underlies the Voltage Dependence of Drosophila TRPL Channel
The light-activated channels of Drosophila photoreceptors transient receptor potential (TRP) and TRP-like (TRPL) show voltage-dependent conductance during illumination. Recent studies implied that mammalian members of the TRP family, which belong to the TRPV and TRPM subfamilies, are intrinsically voltage-gated channels. However, it is unclear whether the Drosophila TRPs, which belong to the TR...
متن کاملVoltage dependence of the Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel K(Ca)3.1 in human erythroleukemia cells.
We have isolated a K(+)-selective, Ca(2+)-dependent whole cell current and single-channel correlate in the human erythroleukemia (HEL) cell line. The whole cell current was inhibited by the intermediate-conductance KCa3.1 inhibitors clotrimazole, TRAM-34, and charybdotoxin, unaffected by the small-conductance KCa2 family inhibitor apamin and the large-conductance KCa1.1 inhibitors paxilline and...
