Name
monoatomic ion channel activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
ion channel activity
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Enables the facilitated diffusion of a monoatomic ion (by an energy-independent process) by passage through a transmembrane aqueous pore or channel without evidence for a carrier-mediated mechanism. May be either selective (it enables passage of a specific ion only) or non-selective (it enables passage of two or more ions of same charge but different size).
