Modeling of an ion channel in its open conformation.
We have modeled the structure of KirBac1.1 in an open state using as a starting point the structure of KirBac1.1 in its closed conformation (Protein Data Bank 1P7B). To test the validity of the open-state model, molecular dynamics simulations in octane, a lipid bilayer mimetic, were carried out. Sim...
