Aquaporin Proteins: Perfect filters — •Helmut Grubmüller and Bert L. de Groot — Theoretische und computergestützte Biophysik

Aquaporins are highly selective water channels. Molecular dynamics simulations of water permeation correctly predict the permeation rate, explain why these channels are so efficient, and suggest that protons are blocked by an electrostatic barrier.
