• Part of a unit cell of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI), crystal form II, based on the crystal structure 5pti.brk in the Brookhaven database. The Insight II program was used to perform the symmetry operations of the space group corresponding to the system (P2₁2₁2₁), resulting in four protein molecules (ribbons) in the unit cell, 16 internal water molecules, and 4 phosphate ions identified in experimental diffraction studies. Solvent water molecules were added by filling the entire unit cell and then removing those water molecules that were less than 2.05 Å from protein heavy atoms. Water molecules that were trapped in interior cavities were identified visually and by energetic analysis and were removed. Eight more phosphate ions were inserted randomly, to obtain an electrically neutral system. The cyan lines are the trajectories of the phosphate ions during a 60-ps molecular dynamics simulation at room temperature.
