abstract = {Cation selective channels constitute the gate for ion
currents through the cell membrane. These proteins select
between the physiologically important Na+, K+ and Ca2+
cations. Here we present a statistical mechanical model
based on atomistic structural information and without tuned
parameters that reproduces the selectivity of bacterial Na+
and Ca2+ selective ion channels, the only such channels for
which we have X-ray structures. The importance of the
inclusion of step-wise cation hydration in these results
confirms the essential role partial dehydration plays in the
bacterial Na+ channels. The model, proven reliable against
experimental data, could be straightforwardly used for
designing Na+ and Ca2+ selective nanopores.},
