Fig. 3. Voltage-dependence of CAATCH1 steady-state currents in the absence of free
amino acid ligands. Net total currents measured in representative oocytes
expressing WT or Y147F were obtained without amino acids in the presence of
100 mmol l-1 Na+ (open squares), K+ (filled
diamonds), Li+ (filled triangles) or NMG+ (open
triangles). (A) Total WT currents (adapted from
Feldman et al., 2000). (B) Net
cation-specific WT-dependent currents obtained by subtracting the
NMG+ currents in A at each voltage. (C) Total Y147F currents. (D)
Net cation-specific Y147F-dependent currents obtained by subtracting the
NMG+ currents in C at each voltage. Vm,
membrane potential; I, current. The experiment was repeated 3
times.
