Schematic representation of the thermodynamic cycle used to calculate relative binding free energies due to mutation (ΔΔG = ΔG1 – ΔG3). Horizontal arrows indicate the non-physical pathways used in the current study where the amino acid was alchemically morphed from wild-type to its mutant form for both bound and unbound states.
