Figure Legend Snippet: BACE1 amplifies Kv3.4 current and alters channel kinetics in a heterologous expression system. A1 and A2 show representative currents of a cell expressing Kv3.4 (A1) or Kv3.4 with BACE1 (A2) recorded with the activation protocol shown in the inset. B1 and B2 display representative currents of a Kv3.4-expressing (B1) or Kv3.4 + BACE1-expressing (B2) cell recorded with the inactivation protocol shown in the inset. C, The I–V relationship was generated from Kv3.4 peak currents plotted as function of test potentials from −50 mV to +30 mV, Kv3.4, n = 60; + BACE1, n = 44. D, Relative noninactivating current was calculated as steady-state current divided by peak current. Peak current was determined from the test pulse at +30 mV after a prepulse at −120 mV (B1, B2, prepulse duration 500 ms). Steady-state current was obtained from recordings with a prepulse at +20 mV that activated and inactivated approximately all channels, resulting in no peak and only noninactivating steady-state current at +30 mV. This steady-state current was averaged over the last 28 ms of the test pulse (see arrow in B1 and B2). Kv3.4, n = 49; + BACE1, n = 36. E, Voltage-dependent activation (squares) and inactivation (triangles) curves. Activation: conductance was generated from mean peak current (C). The graphs present the mean conductance fitted with a Boltzmann equation and normalized to the upper asymptote. Kv3.4, n = 60; + BACE1, n = 44. Inactivation: current amplitudes of individual recordings from test pulses after prepulses of −60 mV to +20 mV recorded with the inactivation protocol (B1) were fitted with a Boltzmann equation. Peak current values were normalized to the upper asymptote. Kv3.4, n = 49; + BACE1, n = 36. F, Activation and inactivation time constants were estimated from recordings with the activation protocol (A1). Rise and decay at 0 mV and +10 mV were fitted using a biexponential function to determine activation and inactivation kinetics, respectively. 0 mV: Kv3.4, n = 50; + BACE1, n = 38; +10 mV: Kv3.4, n = 50; + BACE1, n = 39. Statistical significance of time constants was tested on logarithmically transformed data. For illustration, time constant means ± SEM were back-transformed to a linear scale. G, Time-dependent recovery from channel inactivation recorded with the protocol shown in the inset with varying interpulse intervals Δt = 2i [ms], i = 1–12.

I, Graphs generated from Kv3.4 peak currents recorded with the command protocol shown in H. Kv3.4, n = 50; + BACE1, n = 42. D, E Inactivation, F, G, I, Cells with peak currents <2 nA at +80 mV in the activation protocol (A1) were excluded from analysis. Statistics: **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, normally distributed data were tested using a two-tailed two-sample t test (F); datasets showing no normal distribution were tested using a two-tailed Mann–Whitney test (C, D, G, I).
