Using molecular and Brownian dynamics techniques we create an open channel structure, deduce the permeation characteristics, and highlight the amino acid residues responsible for the different conductance properties of these channels.Keywords: amino acid; chloride ion; article; chemical analysis; chemical structure; chloride channel; controlled study; ion conductance; ion transport; molecular dynamics; nonhuman; structure analysisPermeation Dynamics of Chloride Ions in the CIC-O and CIC-1 Channels200410.1016/j.cplett.2004.01.0722015-12-11
