Water-mediated conformational transitions in nicotinic receptor M2 helix bundles: a molecular dynamics study

<p>The ion channel of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is a water-filled pore formed by five M2 helix segments, one from each subunit. Molecular dynamics simulations on bundles of five M2α7 helices surrounding a central column of water and with caps of water molecules at either end of the...
