Abstract
Using the perforated patch version of whole-cell recording, we have measurd currents from isolated frog lens epithelial cells. Three types of currents were seen. A time-independent outwardly rectifying potassium current was identified that sets the resting voltage. This potassium current differs significantly from any of the potassium currents recorded with the whole-cell technique in mammalian lens epithelial cells. In addition to the potassium current, the two other currents present were both outwardly rectifying: one was time-independent while the other showed distinct activation.
