Pacemaker current on hyperpolarization, and very slow kinetics. The funny current is highly expressed in spontaneously active cardiac regions, such as the sinoatrial node (SAN, the natural pacemaker region), the atrioventricular node (AVN) and the Purkinje fibres of conduction tissue. The funny current is a mixed sodium–potassium current that activates upon hyperpolarization at voltages in the diastolic range (normally from −60/−70 mV to −40 mV). When, at the end of a sinoatrial action potential, the membrane repolarizes below the I threshold (about −40/−50 mV), the funny current is activated and supplies inward current, which is responsible for starting the diastolic depolarization phase
Blank node Blank node In RDF, a blank node (also called "bnode") is a node in an RDF graph representing a resource for which a URI or literal is not given. The resource represented by a blank node is also called an anonymous resource. According to the RDF standard a blank node can only be used as subject or object of an RDF triple. Blank nodes can be denoted through blank node identifiers in the following formats, RDF/XML, RDFa, Turtle, N3, N-Triples, and RDFa. The following example shows how it works in RDF/XML. The blank node identifiers are only limited in scope
