Using Rowan pocket detection to probe channelrhodopsin ion pathways
CatAstro_Piyush · x · 2026-10-19
A researcher's day-45 log of AI-assisted structural biology: using Rowan's pocket detection to study channelrhodopsin (ChR2) optogenetics, analyzing unusually large cavities, ion pathways, lipid grooves, functional sites, channel opening, and mutation effects. The screenshot shows ChR2 structure with pocket scores (top 11.559) and volumes in Rowan's interface — a concrete look at AI science tooling for ion channel research.
