The Km changes with your reservoir, so predictions are limited. In
general if you have a low Km this is favourable but not a given that
your ligand will be found in the electron density map. As a starting
point try a molar ratio of >3 of the ligand to your protein and you
can go as high as you want (assuming it's soluble and does not cost
you an arm and a leg). 50 fold excess has been used in some cases. And
remember for your cryo-step to include your ligand in sufficient
amounts !
