Common components of whole-cell internal recording solutions were tested both in vitro and in patch-clamp experiments for their effects on the activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Potassium fluoride (KF), 440 mM trimethylamine chloride and exclusion of bovine serum albumin (BSA) decreased the activity of the enzyme, while ethylene glycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether) N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) and the potassium salts of aspartate, gluconate, methylsulfate and monobasic phosphate increased its activity. Addition of KF to the internal solution produced a hyperpolarizing shift in the V1/2 of Ih channel activation, consistent with the KF-induced reduction of protein kinase A activity. Therefore, consideration of the composition of internal solutions is warranted when studying channel physiology by patch-clamp techniques.
在体外和膜片钳实验中测试了全细胞内记录溶液的常见成分对环磷酸腺苷依赖性蛋白激酶活性的影响。440 mM 氟化钾(KF)、三甲氯化铵和排除牛血清白蛋白(BSA)会降低该酶的活性,而乙二醇双(β-氨基乙醚)N,N,N',N'-四乙酸(EGTA)以及天冬氨酸钾、葡萄糖酸钾、甲磺酸钾和磷酸二氢钾会增加其活性。向内部溶液中添加 KF 会使 Ih 通道激活的 V1/2 发生超极化偏移,这与 KF 诱导的蛋白激酶 A 活性降低一致。因此,在用膜片钳技术研究通道生理学时,有必要考虑内部溶液的成分。
