Nonlinear drift-diffusion model of gating in the fast Cl channel
Samuel R. Vaccaro
The dynamics of the open or closed state region of an ion channel may be described by a probability density which satisfies a Fokker-Planck equation. The closed state dwel…

Voltage dependence of Hodgkin-Huxley rate functions for a multi-stage K channel voltage sensor within a membrane
Samuel R. Vaccaro
The activation of a channel sensor in two sequential stages during a voltage clamp may be described as the translocation of a Brownian particle in an energy landscape with tw…

Position-dependent stochastic diffusion model of ion channel gating
Samuel Robert Vaccaro
A position-dependent stochastic diffusion model of gating in ion channels is developed by considering the spatial variation of the diffusion coefficient between the closed and open…
