Simulations of anion transport through OprP reveal the molecular basis for high affinity and selectivity for phosphate.

The outer membrane protein OprP from Pseudomonas aeruginosa forms a phosphate selective pore. To understand the mechanism of phosphate permeation and selectivity, we used three simulation techniques [equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, steered molecular dynamics, and calculation of a potenti...
