An important class of biological molecules -proteins called ionic channels conduct ions (like Na +, K +, Ca ++ and Cl-) through a narrow tunnel of fixed charge. Ionic channels are the main pathway by which substances move into cells and son are of great biological and medical importance: asubstantia
## Abstract A general quantumβmechanical description of molecular transport across biological membranes has been developed. The oneβdimensional SchrΓΆdinger equation for the motion of ions and molecules across the biological membrane has been solved using reasonable potential barriers. Two types of
