Description: In protein crystallographic refinement, it is quite important to avoid false water molecules instroducing noise in the electron density map. In the case that Non-crystallographic symmetry exists in the crystals, many water molecules which binds to the protein should also follow NCS as their host proteins. The WATNCS program can pick those which follow operations from all the water candidates calculated from difference fourier maps.
