 The Shaker voltage-gated potassium channel uses an inactivation mechanism that is similar to that used by voltage-gated sodium channels, and studies of Shaker were used to discover how channels may be inactivated by voltage. Shown below are patch clamp recordings from a cell expressing the Shaker channel (top), a cell expressing the Shaker channel with a deleted N- terminus (middle), and cell expressing the Shaker channel with a deleted N-terminus and extra N-terminal peptide added back to the solution. What happens to the duration of channel opening when the N-terminus is deleted? What happens when the N-terminal peptide is added back? What does this tell us about the role of the N-terminal portion of the protein in channel inactivation?Â
