Mutating all three types of Ca2+ binding sites eliminates the Ca2+ dependence of Popen. Dose–response relationships for the effect of Ca2+ on Popen at 0 mV were obtained by plotting the mean log ratio of NPopen in the presence and absence of Ca2+ for ΔEΔRΔB (open circles) and ΔEΔRΔB + β1 (filled circles) channels. Each point represents the average between 7 and 11 patches at each [Ca2+] tested. Error bars represent SEM.
