Abstract
⺠We study the stability and ion binding properties of a sodium ion channel (NavAb). ⺠Sodium ions in the selectivity filter are highly hydrated. ⺠Sodium ions bind with the channel protein in an asymmetric manner. ⺠Robust stability of the NavAb channel ⺠Ion permeation through NavAb can be induced by an electric field above 0.5 V/nm.
