Side-chain solvent-accessible surface areas (SASA, Å2) were determined using the NACCESS algorithm (35). Calculations used structures from the last 5 ns (5,000 structures) of each simulation. All values are expressed as means and standard deviations of the means of three independent simulations at 37°C.
