Thermodynamic coupling between activation and inactivation gating in potassium channels revealed by free energy molecular dynamics simulations
The amount of ionic current flowing through K(+) channels is determined by the interplay between two separate time-dependent processes: activation and inactivation gating. Activation is concerned with the stimulus-dependent opening of the main intracellular gate, whereas inactivation is a spontaneou...
