*

The number of observed specific type of associated subunit pairs (ASP) in the simulations.

The fraction of the well-ordered subunit pairs over all subunit pairs (summation of all possible subunit pairs provided by every oligomer) A dimer, a tetramer, a heptamer or an octamer provides 0, 1, 2, and 3 subunit pairs, respectively.
