Previous analysis of single-channel current records has shown that both the opening and closing transitions of chemically activated ion channels are operated by fast and slow kinetic processes. The fast component in the kinetics of channel opening has been interpreted as the reopening of a channel that has just closed. The fast component in the kinetics of channel closure has many possible explanations and is therefore more difficult to interpret. We can gain insight into the closing process by asking whether the lifetimes of successive openings of an acetylcholine receptor channel are correlated in open-state lifetime. Five kinetic models of channel closure are considered. Two of these models predict uncorrelated open-state lifetimes, one predicts correlated open-state lifetimes, and for two others a range of behavior is possible. Acetylcholine receptor channel data from cultured rat muscle are analyzed to show that open-state lifetimes are correlated, eliminating two models of channel gating.
先前对单通道电流记录的分析表明,化学激活离子通道的开放和关闭转变均由快速和慢速动力学过程控制。通道开放动力学中的快速成分被解释为刚关闭的通道的重新开放。通道关闭动力学中的快速成分有多种可能的解释,因此更难解读。通过询问乙酰胆碱受体通道连续开放的寿命在开放状态寿命方面是否相关,我们可以深入了解关闭过程。考虑了通道关闭的五种动力学模型。其中两种模型预测开放状态寿命不相关,一种预测开放状态寿命相关,另外两种则可能有一系列行为。对来自培养大鼠肌肉的乙酰胆碱受体通道数据进行分析,结果表明开放状态寿命是相关的,从而排除了两种通道门控模型。
