Water permeation dynamics of AqpZ: a tale of two states.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 1 Jun 2011

Xin Lin, Su Haibin, Nielsen Claus Helix, Tang Chuyang, Torres Jaume, Mu Yuguang

Abstract excerpt

Molecular dynamics simulations of aquaporin Z homotetramer which is a membrane protein facilitating rapid water movement through the plasma membrane of Escherichia coli were performed. Initial configurations were taken from the open and closed states of crystal structures separately. The resulting water osmotic permeability (pf) and diffusive permeability (pd) displayed distinct features. Consistent with previous...
