“…Ion selectivity of TRP channels is perhaps defined by interaction energy of competing permeable cations with dynamic selectivity filters, which is beyond what can be gleaned from only inspecting the existing static snapshots of TRP channel structures. Further experiments, such as molecular dynamic studies performed for TRPV1 (Jorgensen et al, 2016) and TRPV6 (Sakipov et al, 2018), are needed to fill this gap of knowledge. Nevertheless, as discussed below, the selectivity filters of TRP channels do conform to the same basic design principles that have emerged from structural analyses of K + (Doyle et al, 1998), Na v (Payandeh et al, 2011; Zhang et al, 2012; Shen et al, 2017; Yan et al, 2017; Pan et al, 2018; Jiang et al, 2019), and Ca v channels (Tang et al, 2014; Wu et al, 2016).…”
