Kcsa: It's a Potassium Channel

Ion conduction and selectivity properties of KcsA, a bacterial ion channel of known structure, were studied in a planar lipid bilayer system at the single-channel level. Selectivity sequences for permeant ions were determined by symmetrical solution conductance (K+ > Rb+, NH4 +, Tl+ ≫ Cs+, Na+, L...
