Divergence between experimentally observed and computationally predicted amino acid frequency distributions at 44 positions of the I-AniI protein–DNA interface was assessed using two standard metrics for comparing probability distributions: the Jensen–Shannon divergence33 and the Euclidean distance. A lower divergence value indicates that the probability distributions better match one another.
