A calcium-independent chloride current activated by hyperpolarization in Xenopus oocytes.

Parker I , Miledi R .


Abstract
Hyperpolarization of oocytes of Xenopus laevis usually elicits mainly passive currents. However, when polarized to potentials more negative than about -100 mV, oocytes obtained from some donors show a relatively well maintained current that is carried mainly by chloride ions. This response does not depend upon external calcium, and is thus clearly different from the calcium-dependent transient chloride current previously described.
