53 Why use ignm2.0? Easy access to precomputed results for 95% of the PDB including the largest structures beyond the scope of MD protein-dna/rna complexes biological assemblies (intact, biologically functional structures) Easy to understand, visualize, make functional inferences for any structure 13.9% of the structures in the ignm 2.0 (14,899 out of 107,201) contain >10 3 nodes The biological assembly of 39,505 PDB structures is different from the default structure reported in the PDBs (as asymmetric unit) 53

54 Collective motions are functional Collectivity (2D) for a given mode k is a measure of the degree of cooperativity (between residues) in that mode, defined as (*) Information entropy associated with residue fluctuations in mode k where, k is the mode number and i is the residue index. A larger collectivity value refers to a more distributive mode and vice versa. Usually soft modes are highly collective. (*) Brüschweiler R. Collective protein dynamics and nuclear spin relaxation.
