    • Local corrugation coefficient γ introduced in our previous paper8 was defined as a ratio of volume of monomolecular layer of solvation water to the area of water-protein contact surface. This value was divided by the van der Waals radius of oxygen atom of water molecule (to make the parameter dimensionless). The volume and the surface area were calculated by Voronoi tessellation, taking into account all atoms surrounding given water molecule (all atoms of protein and all atoms of other water molecules). Herein, we use a weighted method of tessellation, and the weights are van der Waals radiuses of neighboring atoms (see Methods section). This is why the values of γ parameters are different from the previous ones.8
