(Plant Physiology) Electrophysiological measurements were carried out on bean guard cells to measure outwards K+ currents and how they are modified by various factors. Assume that the K+ currents shown here are proportional to the net changes in the intracellular K+ concentration. Currents (I) across the plasma membrane at different voltages (V) were determined after each step of four different experiments. Experiment 1Step 1: Incubated in washing buffer. Step 2: Exposed to exogenous nitric oxide (NO). Step 3: Washed in washing buffer Experiment 2Step 1: Injected with buffer to set cytoplasmic pH to 7.4. Step 2: Exposed to exogenous nitric oxide (NO). Step 3: Washed in washing buffer. Experiment 3 Step 1: Incubated in washing buffer. Step 2: Exposed to exogenous nitric oxide (NO). Step 3: Exposed to BAL, a reducing agent that is known to reduce disulphide bridges in proteins. Step 4: Exposed to exogenous nitric oxide (NO). Experiment 4 Step 1: Incubated in washing buffer.
