Abstract excerpt
TRPV5 is a calcium-selective epithelial ion channel that is essential for renal Ca2+ reabsorption and systemic calcium homeostasis. Despite recent structural advances, the energetic basis and coordinated contributions of the three selectivity-filter residues (D542, T539, and N572/I575) to Ca2+ selectivity remain unresolved. Here, we combine absolute and relative binding free-energy calculations (ABFE/RBFE), pore...
