Δ Eelectrostatic -484.8 ± 53.5 -364.5 ± 52.8 -223.5 ± 39.2 -448.4 ± 36.8
Δ Gsolvation–electrostatic 476.9 ± 49.9 373.9 ± 50.2 245.6 ± 24.0 473.8 ± 42.3
Δ Gsolvation–nopolar -8.4 ± 0.6 -6.1 ± 0.7 -10.9 ± 1.1 -11.0 ± 0.6
Δ TS -52.5 ± 2.9 -28.4 ± 2.6 -41.5 ± 3.5 -44.2 ± 4.2
Δ Gbinding -7.1 ± 4.7 -2.3 ± 1.6 -6.9 ± 3.7 -6.1 ± 2.2
Δ Δ Gbinding 4.9* ± 3.5 0.2 ± 4.2 1.1 ± 3.6

All values in this table were expressed in terms of kcal/mol. ΔEvdW is the van der Waals energy, ΔEelectrostatic is the electrostatic energy, ΔGpolar–solvation is the polar solvation energy, ΔGnopolar–solvation is the nonpolar solvation energy, ΔTS is the energy contributed from solute entropy, ΔGbinding is the binding free energy for the complex, and ΔΔGbinding is the relative binding free energies with respect to the complex of Fas and CaM not bound to TFP.
