Comparisons of halothane-induced changes in the channel water (wide black bars and the left vertical axis) and the pore radius (thin green bars and the right vertical axis) for the closed-channel (A) and open-channel (B) systems. The number of water molecules was counted every 5 Å and the pore radius was calculated every 2.5 Å along the channel axis (Z-coordinate), and averaged over 100 snapshots in the first and the last 1-ns simulations. A positive value on the chart indicates more water molecules or larger pore radius in the halothane system than in the control system. The locations of pore lining residues along the channel axis are highlighted in the top panel.
