Cation Selectivity in Biological Cation Channels Using Experimental Structural Information and Statistical Mechanical Simulation.
Cation selective channels constitute the gate for ion currents through the cell membrane. Here we present an improved statistical mechanical model based on atomistic structural information, cation hydration state and without tuned parameters that reproduces the selectivity of biological Na+ and Ca2+...
