Figure 8. Dynamics of the Pore Channel Derived from the SRMD Simulations.

Figure 8

(A–B) The time-dependence of the radii of L- and V-rings as the receptor rotates in clockwise and anticlockwise directions, respectively.

(C) Pore radius profiles versus position along the pore axis. Curves represent the radius changes at different time intervals for the all-atoms as the receptor rotates in clockwise direction.

(D) Bending vibrations of the M2 helices represented by changes of inclination angle along the SRMD trajectory of nAChR rotating in clockwise direction. The inclination angle has been defined in Figure 2A.
