Method |
"Single
ion
channels
with
different
conductances
and
gating
characteristics
were
observed
in
the
plasma
membrane
of
the
slime
mold
Dictyostelium
discoideum
by
means
of
the
patch-clamp
technique
in
the
cell-attached
mode." |
Comments |
"The density of active channels is low: a rough estimate gives about 1 channel per µm^2." |
