a

Values are the mean ± SEM for BKB channels DM1–4.

b

All the gating parameters in the indicated schemes were free, with their values determined by maximum likelihood fitting.

c

qa, qb, qH, and qK were fixed to values in Horrigan et al. (1999) of 0.275 eo, −0.275 eo, 0.262 eo, and −0.138 eo, respectively.

d

H, K, qH, and qK were fixed to the values from Fig. 2 of 3.85 s−1, 6423 s−1, 0.237 eo, and −0.0994 eo, respectively.
