The idea behind this is to sort native ligands from molecules that appeared in the electron density just because they were used in the crystallization buffer or as a cryoprotectant. Can anybody point out literature, a web site, or simply provide a (subjective) list extending my collection of GOL, EDO, and different size PEGs? What about sugars? Thanks for your help, Chris
