Figure 2

Motifs recovered by NestedMICA and MEME in the single-motif spiking tests, for motif set 1. Motifs in this set were obtained from several Pfam domain entries. For each original test motif used in the motif spiking tests, the 3 tested abundance rates are shown in the next column. For motifs recovered by NestedMICA (fourth column) and MEME (sixth column) the cartesian distance to the original test motif and the MCC value obtained when the motif is used for sequence scanning are shown. For comparison purposes, the MCC values of the original test motifs are shown as well. In NestedMICA protein sequence logos, hydrophobic residues are represented in orange, polar and hydrophilic ones in green, acidic ones in pink, and finally basic amino acids are depicted in blue.
