This suggests that under physiologic conditions the I60G channels either have a reduced sensitivity to inhibitory ATP versus wild-type or are more efficiently activated by MgATP. Login to comment

We did not observe I60G channel activity in the absence of Mg2ϩ and activating nucleotides consistent with earlier studies on the Kir6.1/SUR1 wild-type (34, 40, 42, 43), whereas both the Val-59-substituted and wild-type Kir6.2 channels are open in the absence of activating nucleotides (e.g. Figs.
