Abstract
Three-dimensional Brownian dynamics simulations are used to study conductance of the KcsA potassium channel using the known crystallographic structure. Employing an open-state channel created by molecular dynamics simulations, current–voltage and current–concentration curves broadly consistent with experimental measurements are obtained. In the absence of an applied potential, the channel houses three potassium ions at positions that are in close agreement with X-ray diffraction maps.
