Visualize that a patch clamp experiment revealed what could be a new potassium ion channel in mouse neurons. Recordings from the mouse neuron showed a potassium outward current in response to a depolarization by 10 mV from -68 to -58 mV. (The resting membrane potential was -68mV). When the calcium ion concentration was raised from 2 to 8 mM in the extracellular medium, the potassium outward current increased by about 50% from 4 µA to 6 µA. The sodium inward current remained unchanged. The calcium mediated effect on the potassium current is immediate. What type of potassium channel could be involved and how could this channel affect the generation of action potentials? Explain
