Cooperative Effects in Models of Steady-State Transport across Membranes

IV. One-Site, Two-Site, and Multisite Models

Abstract

Several different one-site, two-site, and multisite models of steady-state ion transport across a membrane are investigated. The basic features, including cooperative interactions between channels, are the same as in earlier papers in this series. In particular, the present paper represents a considerable elaboration of part III. The models might apply to artificial or possibly to biological membranes, but particular applications must await further elucidation of the molecular structure and operation of these membranes.
