Abstract

The charge profile of K+ and Na+ ions moving in a single file across the filter of the KcsA channel is determined using both molecular dynamics simulations and ab initio calculations. We show a strong correlation between the charge variation and the ion location resulting in a saw-tooth profile, which provides additional information on the influence of charge transfer on the permeation and selectivity of the channel.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
