The study describes the voltage- and time-dependent properties of the inward (anomalous) rectifier K channels (pKir) expressed by pigeon vestibular hair cells. Experiments were performed by using the patch-clamp technique in the cell-attached configuration. Results show that pKir gating is characterized by multiple open and closed states, whose contribution varies as a function of time and voltage.

Abstract

The study describes the voltage- and time-dependent properties of the inward (anomalous) rectifier K channels (pKir) expressed by pigeon vestibular hair cells. Experiments were performed by using the patch-clamp technique in the cell-attached configuration. Results show that pKir gating is characterized by multiple open and closed states, whose contribution varies as a function of time and voltage.
