Ion Selectivity

Ion selectivity is the property of an ion channel that determines its preferential permeation of specific ion species over others based on differences in size, charge, and hydration energy, thereby distinguishing it from nonselective or less selective transmembrane pores within the class of ion-conducting membrane proteins.
