Figure Legend Snippet: Two populations of presynaptic BK Ca channels can be distinguished electrophysiologically at MFBs. A , Outside-out patches drawn from MFBs (steady state at +20 mV) exhibit large single-channel openings that are sensitive to Pax but not to IBTX. Ctrl, Control. B , Long depolarizing voltage steps to 0 mV in the whole-cell recording configuration reveal Pax- and IBTX-sensitive BK Ca channel-mediated currents (green) composed of two kinetically distinct components. C , Summary of Pax ( n = 4), IBTX ( n = 7), and cadmium (Cd 2+ , n = 7) sensitivity for recordings as shown in B (filled bars, first, fast activating/fast inactivating component; open bars, second, slowly activating/persistent component; see also filled dots and open squares in B ). D , ω-Agatoxin, ω-conotoxin, and Ni 2+ sensitivity (each n = 6) of currents as recorded in B (bar code as in C ). E , Voltage dependence of first, fast activating/fast inactivating component (open squares), and of second, slowly activating/persistent component (filled circles; n = 3). F , Left, Comparison of example K v -mediated current kinetics (black trace) and BK Ca -mediated current kinetics (green trace: Cd 2+ -sensitive current); traces scaled to the same peak amplitude. Note the extremely fast inactivation of I BKCa . Right, Same traces at higher temporal resolution. Blue trace represents example Ca v -mediated current recorded in a separate MFB. Vertical scale bar applies to BK Ca - and Ca v -mediated currents.
