Rubidium and sodium permeability of the ATP-sensitive K+ channel in single rat pancreatic beta-cells.

1. The patch-clamp method has been used to study the selectivity of single ATP-sensitive potassium channels in excised membrane patches from dissociated rat pancreatic beta-cells. 2. In symmetrical K+ concentrations the current-voltage relation of this channel showed slight inward rectification. The...
