The interface between electrocatalyst and electrolyte is highly dynamic. Even in absence of major structural changes, the intermediate coverage and interfacial solvent are bias and time dependent. This is not accounted for in current kinetic models.

- Researchers studied how photoswitches can control voltage-gated ion channels by binding inside their cavities and reacting to light.
- Using molecular dynamics simulations, they identified three stable binding sites for two specific photoswitches (azobenzene and p-diaminoazobenzene) on the human Na1.4 channel.
- The binding is influenced by hydrophobic interactions and electrostatic forces, suggesting that these photoswitches could impact how ions pass through the channel when they bind.
