The effect of external K+ on the delayed K+ current was investigated in rabbit single Purkinje cells. Whole cell voltage clamp and intracellular dialysis were used. At K+ concentrations less than 1 mM the kinetics of the delayed K+ current were not changed, but the conductance was markedly reduced. This effect was due to a direct change at an extracellular site and not due to secondary changes in intracellular Na+ or Ca2+ concentrations. A rise in intracellular Na+ or Ca2+ rather increased the delayed K+ current. The decrease in the delayed K+ current in low external K+ was absent when the experiments were done in Na+-free solution. It is concluded that external Na+ exerts an inhibitory effect on the conductance of the delayed K+ current.
