a

Water oxygen atoms,

b

sodium ions,

c

backbone nitrogen atoms (N),

d

backbone oxygen atoms (O),

e

side chain polar atoms of any type,

f

side chain charged atoms of any type.

All numbers were obtained as an average over the last ns of simulations. Contributions smaller than 0.1 are not shown. N means neutral, and C means charged. For Glu, Asp and Lys side chains we show averages over all simulated side chains of a certain type (rows Average E, Average D and Average K respectively).
