Selective ion permeation involves complexation with carboxylates and lysine in a model human sodium channel

Bacterial and human voltage-gated sodium channels (Na(v)s) exhibit similar cation selectivity, despite their distinct EEEE and DEKA selectivity filter signature sequences. Recent high-resolution structures for bacterial Na(v)s have allowed us to learn about ion conduction mechanisms in these simpler...
