Figure 7. Structure Correlation Coefficient.
The structure correlation coefficient as a function of sequence identity. The dataset consists of tRNAs and 5S rRNAs; for details see [12]. The difference in correlation coefficient for “FOLDALIGN” and “FOLDALIGN without pruning” at identities 0.1 and 0.15 is due to three sequence pairs for which no alignment and structure are produced. Rerunning FOLDALIGN for those three pairs without pruning should be trivial. “Stemloc” did not produce an alignment for two pairs. For both FOLDALIGN and Stemloc, the pairs which did not produce an alignment are counted as zero.
