Sodium channel heterologous expression in mammalian cells and the role of the endogenous beta1-subunits.
Sodium currents in cell lines transfected with the sole alpha-subunit, or constitutively expressing sodium channels, have an inactivation that is always prevalently mono-exponential. Differently, expression of alpha-subunit in Xenopus oocytes exerts slow inactivating currents with biphasic decay, wh...
