Title: Re: [ccp4bb] Fw: Re: [ccp4bb] Structural importance of ordered water?
Some work has been done on collagen regarding its hydration structure:

(NMR) Peto, S. Gillis, P. Henri, V.P. . Biophys J. (57), 71-84

Are there any reports of the comparison of the number of bound waters
in crystal structures vs NMR structures? Paul Kraft
this is discussed inter alia in :
Mattos, C. & Ringe, D., Solvent Structure, in International Tables for
Crystallography (Rossman,

Direct hydrogen bonds between sidechains are obviously important to
structural stability in proteins. From time to time I see cases of
water-mediated bonds in which a single water molecule seems to play
an important role (sometimes taking the place of a missing ligand
atom in an apo structure, for

Not sure about chains but mutual hydrogen bonded networks (you mention
networks) between protein, water (and ligand) surely occur. I think most
self respecting waters would try and form more then two hydrogen bonds
