Bridging waters observed in high-resolution crystal structures: (a) a water contacts a base-pair already specified by direct sidechain hydrogen bonds; (b) ordered waters represent the only contacts to conserved bases; (c) a protein sidechain makes direct and water-mediated contacts; water-bridged DNA position shows weak preference for purines.
