A model of the nodulin 26 channel protein has been constructed based on comparative modeling and molecular dynamics simulations. Structural features of the protein indicate a selectivity filter that differs from those of the known structures of Escherichia coli glycerol facilitator and mammalian aquaporin 1. The model structure also reveals important roles of Ser207 and Phe96 in ligand binding and transport.
基于比较建模和分子动力学模拟构建了结节素26通道蛋白的模型。该蛋白的结构特征表明其选择性过滤器与大肠杆菌甘油转运蛋白和哺乳动物水通道蛋白1的已知结构不同。模型结构还揭示了Ser207和Phe96在配体结合和转运中的重要作用。
