The best way, I would have thought, would be to specify NCS-restraints
with a high (say 1000 Kcal/A^2) restraint weight on the protein.
That would keep the monomers almost identical. (you can always use free-R to
see if this leads to over-fitting) Then you can have a different
water structure for each monomer. It may be wise to try different
restraint weights, depending in what resolution your data goes to...
Hope this helps,
Aaron.
