Abstract
    Closing in on the facts: The key to understanding the transport of K+ ions through the cell membrane lay in the structure elucidation of a K+ ion channel (see picture). The studies of Roderick MacKinnon and co‐workers have contributed significantly to the understanding of this research area. In his Nobel Lecture, he describes the structural characteristics of K+ ion channels as well as a possible mechanism for ion conduction.
