PoreWalker: a novel tool for the identification and characterization of channels in transmembrane proteins from their three-dimensional structure.
Transmembrane channel proteins play pivotal roles in maintaining the homeostasis and responsiveness of cells and the cross-membrane electrochemical gradient by mediating the transport of ions and molecules through biological membranes. Therefore, computational methods which, given a set of 3D coordi...
