Figure 6. Three potential sites for binding of a K+ ion.

Figure 6

(A) Site 1 is obtained by replacing Na1 by a K+ ion and equilibrating the system for 10 ns in the absence of other ligands (B) Site 2 is obtained by restraining K+ close to the E374 carboxyl group and equilibrating the system for 10 ns with no other ligands bound. (C) Site 3 is obtained by placing a K+ ion near glutamate Inline graphic-N atom and equilibrating the system for 10 ns in the absence of other ligands.
