Details of multiple protocols used for retaining or eliminating crystallographic water

Method number Method name Description Number of crystallographic water molecules kept in CALB Number of crystallographic water molecules kept in hh-CytC
1 All water Keeping all crystallographic water molecules 286 124
2 Buried water Keeping buried crystallographic water molecules 6 2
3 Slow-diffusing water Keeping crystallographic water molecules, which were found to be slow-diffusing by having diffusion coefficients less than 1/3rd of the average, after 10 ns simulation with all crystal waters Water solvent 7 Water solvent 43
n-butanol solvent 105 20% aqueous methanol 30
tert-butanol solvent 127 40% aqueous methanol 32
Acetonitrile solvent 71
4 Water within 2.7 Å Keeping crystallographic water molecules within 2.7 Å from protein 19 N/A
5 No water Without keeping any crystallographic water 0 0
