Figure 6

Repeating domains and disorder. Results are shown for party hubs (PHs), date hubs (DHs) and non-hubs (NHs). Repeating domains in (a) DIP and (b) FYI. A domain repeat is defined as two or more adjacent domains from the same family. Fractions of proteins with domain repeats containing 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 or more domains are displayed. Fractions of proteins in (c) DIP and (d) FYI with disordered regions of lengths 40 to 79 residues and 80 or more residues are shown. Although 40 residues is a common cut-off for disordered regions, it is somewhat arbitrary and, therefore, 80 residues was added as an alternative cut-off.
