The parameter values obtained from the best fit of the g-V curves to a Boltzmann distribution (Figs. 5 B and 6 A). Free energies were estimated assuming a two-state gating model.
Pmin denotes the normalized conductance at hyperpolarized potentials (gmin/gmax), where gmin has been obtained for the best fit of the g-V curve to a Boltzmann distribution.
The free energy of the voltage-independent component, obtained as –RT ln[(Pmin/(1 − Pmin)].
The free energy of the voltage-dependent component, obtained as zgFV0.5.
The total free energy of the gating process, obtained as ΔGo(I)+ΔGo(V).
Data are given as mean ± SEM, with n ≥ 5. NA, not applicable.
