Figure 3

Ab initio simulations of proton dynamics within a reduced model of the ion-binding site of the Bacillus rotor. Configurations at t = 0 are depicted for (A) the putative H3O+ state, and (B) the site with E54 protonated plus a bound H2O. The plots describe the proton trajectories as the distance to the water or carboxylate oxygen atoms.
