Chloride ions in the pore of glycine and GABA channels shape the time course and voltage dependence of agonist currents.
In the vertebrate CNS, fast synaptic inhibition is mediated by GABA and glycine receptors. We recently reported that the time course of these synaptic currents is slower when intracellular chloride is high. Here we extend these findings to measure the effects of both extracellular and intracellular...
