An examination of the slow inactivation and resting inactivation of Kv1.5 and ShakerIR

External H⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions inhibit Kv1.5 channels by increasing current decay during a depolarizing pulse and reducing the peak current. A similarly accelerated current decay and reduced peak current amplitude have also been described in ShakerIR channels at low extracellular pH, and in the fast inac...
