Highly connected SMOGs are more likely to be solved. Distributions of node degree for all SMOGs, compared to the population of solved SMOGs and to the SMOGs solved by structure genomic initiative. A. Distributions for cumulative SMOG populations solved by a certain year (shown as absolute SMOG numbers on the log-log scale). SMOGs that are linked to the structures determined by year 1995 (blue), by year 2004 (red), and to the structures determined by structural genomics initiatives (green) are compared to the whole SMOG set (black). The inset shows the fraction of solved SMOGs for different bins of node degree. B. Distributions for SMOGs solved in a certain year and for SMOGs initially solved by SGI (shown as frequencies). SMOGs that were for the first time linked to a structure solved in 1995 (blue), 2003 (red), and to a structure produced by SGI (green) are compared to the whole SMOG set (black). Number of SMOGs in each population is indicated in parentheses.
