Energetics of ion competition in the DEKA selectivity filter of neuronal sodium channels
D. Boda, G. Leaf, J. Fonseca +1
The energetics of ionic selectivity in the neuronal sodium channels is studied. A simple model constructed for the selectivity filter of the channel is used. The selectivity filter…
