The influence of geometry, surface character and flexibility on the permeation of ions and water through biological pores

Oliver Beckstein, Mark S. P. Sansom

A hydrophobic constriction site can act as an efficient barrier to ion and water permeation if its diameter is less than the diameter of an ion's first hydration shell. This hydrop…
