Figure 8.

Abrogation of inhibition of InsP3R-3 channel activity by physiological levels of [Ca2+]ER. (A) A typical single-channel current trace recorded during a switch of [Ca2+]ER from 70 nM to 1.1 mM. (B–D) Bar graphs of mean ratios of channel Po, to, and tc observed before and after [Ca2+]ER switches between 70 nM and 1.1 mM, showing the abrogation of inhibitory effects of 1.1 mM [Ca2+]ER on InsP3R channel activity in the presence of stronger cytoplasmic Ca2+ buffering (5 mM BAPTA) and smaller Ca2+ flux through the channel as a result of positive Vapp. Labels on the x axes indicate [diBrBAPTA] in mM (top) and Vapp in mV (bottom).
