Most ion-coupled cotransporters display, in the absence of organic substrate, transient currents resembling the gating currents of voltage-dependent ion channels. Detailed comparison of these currents in different ionic and temperature conditions with the corresponding steady-state currents when translocation of the substrate occurs reveals new insights into the mechanisms of the process.

Abstract

Most ion-coupled cotransporters display, in the absence of organic substrate, transient currents resembling the gating currents of voltage-dependent ion channels. Detailed comparison of these currents in different ionic and temperature conditions with the corresponding steady-state currents when translocation of the substrate occurs reveals new insights into the mechanisms of the process.
