Neurons (Figs. 1 and 2) and cloned channels in CHO cells (Fig. 4) were studied in whole cell mode using filter and sampling frequencies of 5 and 25 kHz for voltage clamp studies and 1 and 10 kHz for current clamp recording. Voltage-dependent currents were studied after a P/5 leak subtraction. Stimulation protocols are described in the figure legends. Membrane potential and potassium currents were studied in solution A (in mM): 1.3 CaCl2, 0.5 MgCl2, 0.4 MgSO4, 3.56 KCl, 0.44 KH2PO4, 139.7 NaCl, 0.34 Na2HPO4, 5.5 glucose, and 10 HEPES, pH 7.4 with NaOH. Electrodes were filled with solution B (in mM): 136 KCl, 1 MgCl2, 2 K2ATP, 5 EGTA, and 10 HEPES, pH 7.2 with KOH. Sodium currents were studied with solution C in the bath (in mM): 130 NaCl, 5 CsCl, 2 CaCl2, 1.2 MgCl2, 5 glucose, and 10 HEPES, pH 7.4 with NaOH. The electrode solution D contained (in mM): 60 CsCl, 80 CsF, 10 EGTA, 1 CaCl2, 1 MgCl2, 5 Na2ATP, and 10 HEPES, pH 7.4 with CsOH. To determine V1/2, voltage evoking half-maximal conductance, and Vs, the slope of the curve, the normalized current was plotted against voltage and fitted to the Boltzmann equation, G = Gmax /(1+exp [−(V−V1/2)/Vs]), where Gmax is maximum conductance. IPEAK was determined at +50 mV. 8–20 cells were studied in each condition. ΔSENP-SUMO is the mean difference between exposure to SENP1 and 75 pM SUMO1101. Vm, resting membrane potential; Rin, input resistance; Ff, firing frequency.
