Exitable Membrane Ion Channel as a Self-Organized Non-Equilibrium System. 2. Modelling of Ion Channel Bearing Several «Gate Particles»

 

Summary

 

    A model of single-ion channel allowing us to describe discrete conductive-ty levels and gate processes is suggested. A number of conformational variables descri¬bing ion-conformational interaction is equal to the number of «gate particles*. Synerge-tic approach developed in the paper enables us to reproduce the properties of ecxited membranes described by Hodgkin — Haxley theory. Along with this te model has special properties making possible its experimental approbation.
