Figure 6

Relationship between gene duplicability (K) and average network distance among proteins of corresponding duplicate genes in the yeast S. cerevisiae (A) and human (B) protein-protein interaction networks. Gene duplicability, as described in Materials and Methods, was calculated as BLAST hit count of the gene’s protein. Average network distances were calculated as the average length of all pair-wise shortest paths among the proteins of the gene and its duplicates. The data were binned with a bin-size of 1 according to gene duplicability K. The vertical axis is the average network distance within each bin.
