\section{Estimation of the activation curve}
Mutations in genes, encoding for ion channels, can result in a variety of neurological diseases like epilepsy, autism and intellectual disability. One way to find a possible treatment is to compare the voltage dependent kinetics of the mutated channel with its corresponding wild-type. These kinetics are described in voltage-clamp experiments and the subsequent data analysis.
In this task you will compute and compare the activation curves of the Nav1.6 wild-type channel and one with a mutation named A1622D (the amino acid Alanine (A) at the 1622nd position is replaced by Aspartic acid (D)) that causes intellectual disability in humans.
