Figure 3. Dynamic cross-correlation matrices of six proteins in the methionine adenosyltransferase group with a color key depicting the correlated motions in red and anticorrelated motions in blue. The overall pattern remains consistent across all species within the group, apart from minute differences that are barely visible to the naked eye.
