  • F4-a All values are mean ± SEM; current densities and τdecay values were determined for currents evoked at +50 mV; n = number of cells.

  • F4-b Data from Malin and Nerbonne, (2000).

  • F4-150 Values are significantly (p < 0.02) higher than in wild-type I SCG cells (see Table 1);

  • F4-160 values are significantly (p < 0.001) larger than in Kv4.2-transfected cells.
