Typical calculations of the values of V_M and V_solv for proteins

Protein	γB-Crystallin	γD-Crystallin	Ceruloplasmin
Space group
Cell parameters (Å)	57.5 × 98.0	57.8 × 70.0 × 117.3	213.9 × 85.6
Molecular weight (kDa)	21	21	132
Z	8	4	6
V_M (Å³ Da⁻¹)	1.93	5.65^†	4.95
V_solv (%)	36	78^†	75
Resolution (Å)	1.5	2.0	3.1

^†In the case of γD-crystallin, the values for V_M and V_solv are abnormally high. A recalculation assuming two molecules per asymmetric unit, Z_a = 2, gives more reasonable values of V_M = 2.83 Å³ Da⁻¹ and V_solv = 56%.
