Fig. 5From: MS3ALIGN: an efficient molecular surface aligner using the topology of surface curvaturePairs of surfaces which overlap with each other with an approximately known fraction of area of each other are generated by cutting the molecular skin surface using a pair of planes. Here, the skin surface of 4j2m (orange, center) is cut by two planes into two pieces (violet on the left and green on the right) such that 20 % of the area of either overlaps with the otherBack to article page
