Note: The energy is computed according to the final 25-ns simulations of human and mouse MEIG1–PACRG complexes. ΔΔEvdw and ΔΔEcoul are the van der Waals and electrostatic interactions, respectively, between the wild type and mutants. ΔΔWPB is the polar solvation free energy calculated by the Poisson–Boltzmann model. ΔΔWnp is the nonpolar contribution of the solvation energy. ΔΔEel represents the sum of ΔΔEcoul and ΔΔWPB. ΔΔEnp represents the sum of ΔΔEvdw and ΔΔWnp. ΔΔ indicates the changes between the calculations from the mutated and wild type state. The model numbers in the first column indicate the two states used to calculate ΔΔ.
