The Ca(2+)-activated K(+) current of human sperm is mediated by Slo3

Sperm are equipped with a unique set of ion channels that orchestrate fertilization. In mouse sperm, the principal K(+) current (I(KSper)) is carried by the Slo3 channel, which sets the membrane potential (V(m)) in a strongly pH(i)-dependent manner. Here, we show that I(KSper) in human sperm is acti...
