Figure 3.
Principal component analysis (PCA) of trajectory of a 150 residue vasoinhibin (Vi). (a) Average backbone covariance matrix from PCA analysis of PRL and Vi. Highly correlated motions are in red and low correlation motions are in blue. Red intensity in the diagonal indicates the amplitude of fluctuations. (b) Bars show the first 15 eigenvectors of the covariance matrix of PRL and Vi (bars), whereas lines indicate the cumulative sum of the contribution to the total fluctuation percentage of the respective eigenvectors to each molecule. (c) The 2D eigenvector projections of the trajectory of PRL (black) and Vi (red). (d) Principal motion projected along the eigenvector 1 of PRL and Vi superimposed sequentially in 10 frames. Red and blue colours represent changes from minimum (0 ns) to maximum (20 ns) MD, respectively.
