On the mechanism of calcium permeability and magnesium block in NMDA receptors - a central molecular paradigm in neuroplasticity

Ruben Steigerwald, Max Epstein, Tsung‐Han Chou, Hiro Furukawa

This study elucidates the molecular mechanism of Ca2+ permeability and Mg2+ block in NMDA receptors, showing how Ca2+ partially dehydrates to pass through the selectivity filter while Mg2+ remains hydrated and blocks the channel.
