Forces from Lipids and Ionic Diffusion: Probing lateral membrane effects by an optimized filter region of voltage dependent K+ channels
Johann Summhammer, Georg Sulyok, Gustav Bernroider +1
We investigate the possible influence of poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the lipid bilayer of cell membranes on the conduction properties of the selectivity filter of volta…
A Quantum-mechanical description of ion motion within the confining potentials of voltage gated ion channels
Johann Summhammer, Vahid Salari, Gustav Bernroider
Voltage gated channel proteins cooperate in the transmission of membrane potentials between nerve cells. With the recent progress in atomic-scaled biological chemistry it has now b…
Quantum entanglement in the voltage dependent sodium channel can reproduce the salient features of neuronal action potential initiation
Johann Summhammer, Gustav Bernroider
We investigate the effects of a quantum entanglement regime within an ion conducting molecule (ion channel) of the neuronal plasma membrane on the onset dynamics of propagating ner…
