Figure 9

ASA conservation in comparative models. The figure shows the distribution of atomic ΔASA (ΔASA = ASA_experimental – ASA_model) for cleft atoms and four cases: low- (< 30% seq.id, white), medium- (30% ≤ seq.id. < 60%, light grey) and high-quality (> 60% seq.id., dark grey) models, and auto-models (dashed). On the top x-axis we display the number of atom-atom contacts equivalent to the ΔASA value in the bottom x-axis, estimated using [66]: ΔCN ~ 0.31ΔASA. Vertical dashed lines are used to separate the ΔASA bins.
