Extended Data Fig. 6: Ion selectivity of CNGC5 and CNGC1.

From: Cryo-EM structures of Arabidopsis CNGC1 and CNGC5 reveal molecular mechanisms underlying gating and calcium selectivity

Extended Data Fig. 6

a, Sequence alignment of ion selectivity filter motifs in 20 Arabidopsis CNGCs. b-d, Density map at the selectivity filter of CNGC1Ca and CNGC5Ca. Both samples were prepared with a supplementation of 2 mM Ca2+. Selectivity filter regions of two diagonally opposed subunits are shown in sticks, the Ca2+ ions along the ion pathway are in green spheres and water molecules are in red spheres. b, The density at the selectivity filter of CNGC1Ca. Density map is obtained after C4 symmetry processing (contoured at 5.5 σ). c, The density at the selectivity filter of CNGC5Ca. Density map is obtained after C4 symmetry processing (contoured at 5.5 σ). d, The density at the selectivity filter of CNGC5Ca. Density map is obtained after C1 symmetry processing (contoured at 4.0 σ). Chain A, C and chain B, D exhibit distinct conformations due to their mobility or asymmetry, and are shown separately.
