title: [Calculation of local Hurst exponents in the Ca(2+)-activated K(+)-channel dwell time].
abstract: A novel method based on the maximum overlap wavelet transform of dwell time series is proposed. Information on local multifractal properties of the series, namely local Hurst exponents or Holder exponents, was obtained. The results confirm the presence of multifractality and intrinsic correlations in the Ca(2+)-activated K+ channel dwell time series. The data on the local multifractal structure of the series can be interpreted in terms of processes having self-organized criticality. The proposed approach allows one to widen the store of methods for the analysis of single ion channel activity.
