Properties of the gap junctions in MSMC.

Simulated currents for Type I and Type II are shown in (A) and (B), respectively. The currents are elicited in response to 5 s square pulses in the voltage range of ± 90 mV from holding potential of 0 mV. Steady-state conductance as function of V_j for Type I an Type II shown in (C) and (D), respectively, using quasi-symmetrical Boltzmann functions (dashed line) and the Gaussian function (solid line). The time constant as function of V_j for Type I and Type II are shown in (E) and (F), respectively.
