PIP2-binding site in Kir channels: definition by multiscale biomolecular simulations

Phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP₂) is an activator of mammalian inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels. Multiscale simulations, via a sequential combination of coarse-grained and atomistic molecular dynamics, enabled exploration of the interactions of PIP₂ molecules within the inner leaf...
