Voronota-LT command-line tool was benchmarked on a diverse set of structures of multi-chain biological assemblies downloaded from the Protein Data Bank.
All the 14861 used PDB IDs, and the summary values obtained after processing their first biological assemblies, are in the table “pdb_ids_sizes_correlations_times.tsv”.
All the encountered inter-chain interfaces and their areas are liste in the table “pdb_ids_chain_chain_areas.tsv”.
Below are plots summarizing the time efficiency of constructing contacts using vanilla Voronota (Vanilla-AW) and various modes of Voronota-LT (LT-*). Total running times (including input, computation and output routines) were used for every plot. All the software was compiled and run on the same machine (20-core Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4210R CPU @ 2.40GHz, Ubuntu Linux 23.04, GCC g++ compiler version 12.3.0).
Below are the Pearson correlation coefficients between differently produced sets of areas for every input structure. For a more convenient display, the values were rounded up to four significant digits.
