Perspectives on: Ion selectivity
The purpose of the Perspectives in General Physiology is to provide a forum where scientific uncertainties or controversies are discussed in an authoritative, yet open manner. The Perspectives are solicited by the editors— often based on recommendations by members of the editorial advisory board. To frame the issue, two or more experts are invited to present brief points of view on the problem;...
متن کاملIon selectivity of graphene nanopores.
As population growth continues to outpace development of water infrastructure in many countries, desalination (the removal of salts from seawater) at high energy efficiency will likely become a vital source of fresh water. Due to its atomic thinness combined with its mechanical strength, porous graphene may be particularly well-suited for electrodialysis desalination, in which ions are removed ...
متن کاملIon–Ion Interactions at the Selectivity Filter
In the Kv2.1 potassium channel, binding of K(+) to a high-affinity site associated with the selectivity filter modulates channel sensitivity to external TEA. In channels carrying Na(+) current, K(+) interacts with the TEA modulation site at concentrations </=30 microM. In this paper, we further characterized the TEA modulation site and examined how varying K(+) occupancy of the pore influenced ...
متن کاملIon Selectivity in the Selectivity Filters of Acid-Sensing Ion Channels
Sodium-selective acid sensing ion channels (ASICs), which belong to the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) superfamily, are key players in many physiological processes (e.g. nociception, mechanosensation, cognition, and memory) and are potential therapeutic targets. Central to the ASIC's function is its ability to discriminate Na(+) among cations, which is largely determined by its selectivity fi...
