Determining K+ channel activation curves from K+ channel currents often requires the Goldman-Hodgkin-Katz equation
Potassium ion current in nerve membrane, IK, has traditionally been described by IK = gK(V-EK), where gK is the K ion conductance, V is membrane potential, and EK is the K+ Nernst potential. This description has been unchallenged by most investigators in neuroscience since its introduction almost si...
