Modulation of K+ current by frequency and external [K+]: A tale of two inactivation mechanisms
Open accessAbstract
Voltage-activated K+ currents and their inactivation properties are important for controlling frequency-dependent signaling in neurons and other excitable cells. Two distinct molecular mechanisms for K+ channel inactivation have been described: N-type, which involves rapid occlusion of the open channel by an intracellular tethered blocker, and C-type, which involves a slower change at the extracellular mouth of the pore. We find that frequency-dependent cumulative inactivation of Shaker channels is very sensitive to changes of extracellular [K+] in the physiological range, with much more inactivation at low [K+]out, and that it results from the interaction of N- and C-type inactivation. N-type inactivation enhances C-type inactivation by two mechanisms. First, it inhibits outward K+ flux, which normally fills an external ion site and thus prevents C-type inactivation. Second, it keeps the channel's activation gate open even after repolarization, allowing C-type inactivation to occur for a prolonged period.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
