| Abstract | Extracellular acidification and reduction of extracellular K$^{+}$ are known to decrease the currents of some voltage-gated potassium channels. Although the macroscopic conductance of WT hKv1.5 channels is not very sensitive to [K$^{+}$]$_{o}$ at pH 7.4, it is very sensitive to [K$^{+}$]$_{o}$ at pH 6.4, and in the mutant, H463G, the removal of K$^{+}$ $_{o}$ virtually eliminates the current at pH 7.4. We investigated the mechanism of current regulation by K$^{+}$ $_{o}$ in the Kv1.5 H463G mutant channel at pH 7.4 and the wild-type channel at pH 6.4 by taking advantage of Na$^{+}$ permeation through inactivated channels. Although the H463G currents were abolished in zero [K$^{+}$]$_{o}$, robust Na$^{+}$ tail currents through inactivated channels were observed. The appearnnce of H463G Na$^{+}$ currents with a slow rising phase on repolarization after a very brief depolarization (2 ms) suggests that channels could activate directly from closed-inactivated states. In wild-type channels, when intracellular K$^{+}$ was replaced by NMG$^{+}$ and the inward Na$^{+}$ current was recorded, addition of 1 mM K$^{+}$ prevented inactivation, but changing pH from 7.4 to 6.4 reversed this action. The data support the idea that C-type inactivation mediated at R487 in Kv1.5 channels is influenced by H463 in the outer pore. We conclude that both acidification and reduction of [K$^{+}$]$_{o}$ inhibit Kv1.5 channels through a common mechananism (i.e., by increasing channel inactivation, which occurs in the resting state or develops very rapidly after activation). |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
