| OmpF an outer-membrane porin channel of _E. Coli_ posses beta-barrel structure, whose conductivity and gating phenomena are affected by changes in pH, salt concentration and so on. The distribution of amino acids in OmpF induces a non homologous electric potential in channel lumen. The intrinsic charge distribution caused be amino acid may be affected by lipid bilayer, extra and intra cellular ion concentration, and other physico-chemical condition of environment including, pH, temperature, polyelectrolytes etc. Nucleotides are considered as one of most important metabolite in the cell that have pass through membrane whenever necessary. The experimental study of translocation of such a molecules through channels have provided invaluable information... |
