Note:

“Inner” and “outer” refer to the orientation of the side-chains on the donor strand. Inner residues have their side-chains pointing towards the center of the domain while outer residues have them pointing towards the solvent. “All” refers to all residues of the donor strand.

The number of van der Waals overlaps is the number of contacts between atoms of the donor strand and atoms from the groove that are less than the sum of the van der Waals radii of the interacting atoms. The maximum overlap is the largest for the set of atoms involved in the strand and groove interaction.
