Details of seven hydration sites from the apo protein surface in the proximity of the phosphate group. The occupancy, change in enthalpy, entropy and free energy are relative to bulk water. The changes in the energy changes upon binding are the difference between the apo and the bound states. The sites are labelled α-μ and are displayed in Figure 7. The enthalpy, entropy and free energy are weighted by the occupancy of the site.
