Scope and Contents

Contents

Mouse spermatozoa express a pH-dependent K⁺ current (KSper) thought to be composed of subunits encoded by the Slo3 gene. However, the equivalence of KSper and S/o3-dependent current remains uncertain, because heterologous expression of S/o3 results in currents that are less effectively activated by alkalization than are native KSper currents. Here,...
