Figure 6. Reachability in tissue-specific protease webs.

(A) Beanplot of reachability distributions in the largest connected components of 23 human tissue-specific networks based on gene expression in the corresponding tissues and the original protease web reachability distributions. Overlaid is a scatterplot of the precise values of each node. Numbers in parentheses refer to the size of the network. (B) Inverse cumulative distribution plot of reachability values for skin (dashed black line), spleen (black solid line), liver (dotted black line), and original network (red solid line). Reachability is plotted as an inverse cumulative function of the percentage of nodes that can reach a given minimum percentage of nodes in the corresponding network.
