Experimental and computational studies of plant ion channels

Dry-lab experiments show where ions approach the protein but not how they pass the membrane via the pore of HKT. The next step is to mutate these potential ion coordination sites (introduce changes in the protein structure) and see whether these changes affect the function of HKT. If they do, this shows that a site is important for the function. If there is no change, this part of the protein is not crucial for protein function.
