Figure 3

Correlation of the normalized ranks of the interacting host and viral proteins obtained from site-based and sliding window scoring of the host genes and relative evolutionary rates of the viral genes in the comparison of the all four primate species and the alignment of all viruses. (A) Correlation coefficients of the ranks of interacting proteins averaged by bin size. Significant correlation coefficients (p ≤ 0.05) are indicated by filled dots, the gray box indicates correlation coefficients of ranks plotted in panel B. (B) Plot of viral and host binned ranks. The correlation coefficients obtained for each host gene scoring is indicated in the brackets, lines are fitted according to least sum of squares.
