Title: [Conformational mechanism for transforming energy during active ion transport in a biological membrane]. Author: Melkikh AV, Seleznev VD. Journal: Biofizika; 1993; 38(4):662-6. PubMed ID: 8364067. Abstract: A statistical model of active transport of ions in the biomembrane is presented. The coefficient of energy conversion for linear and non-linear processes in this system is obtained. It is shown that in the linear case this coefficient is equal to that obtained in linear thermodynamics. On the basis of the maximum of this coefficient transport parameters for ions are found. The results of the statistical model are in a good agreement with the experiments on the biological membranes.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
