Asymmetry-induced distinct mechanisms and the transporting role of sodium in bacterial fluoride channel Fluc

Fernando Montalvillo Ortega, K. Mills, Hedieh Torabifard

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to reveal distinct transport mechanisms in Fluc's dual-pore structure and identifies a sodium ion's role as a dynamic cofactor in fluoride transport.
