In this article, Equation (6) of Figure 1 was incorrectly written as (1), where the subscript of absolute permeability value (P) and ionic charge (z) were switched. The correct Equation is (2). This was a typo in the manuscript; all simulations presented in the original paper were performed with the correct equation.

$\begin{array}{cc}{\text{G}}_{\text{K}}={\text{P}}_{\text{ratio}}{\text{P}}_{\text{K}}{\text{z}}_{\text{Cl}}^{\text{2}}\frac{{\text{VF}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{RT}}\frac{{[\text{K}]}_{\text{i}}-{\left[\text{K}\right]}_{\text{o}}\text{exp}(-{\text{z}}_{\text{k}}\text{VF/RT})}{\text{1-exp}(-{\text{z}}_{\text{k}}\text{VF/RT})}÷({\text{E}}_{\text{Rest}}-{\text{E}}_{\text{K}}^{\text{Nernst}})& (1)\end{array}$

The correct equation is

$\begin{array}{cc}{\text{G}}_{\text{K}}={\text{P}}_{\text{ratio}}{\text{P}}_{\text{Cl}}{\text{z}}_{\text{K}}^2\frac{{\text{VF}}^2}{\text{RT}}\frac{{[\text{K}]}_{\text{i}}-{\left[\text{K}\right]}_{\text{o}}\text{exp}(-{\text{z}}_{\text{k}}\text{VF/RT})}{\text{1}-\text{exp}(-{\text{z}}_{\text{k}}\text{VF/RT})}÷({\text{E}}_{\text{Rest}}-{\text{E}}_{\text{K}}^{\text{Nernst}})& (2)\end{array}$
