Figure 4
Illustration of the variant crossing phenomenon. (a) The crystallographic distance (in degrees) to the Bain OR. Frequently reported KS and NW ORs are at 11.07° and 9.74°, respectively. The map exhibits a much broader scatter. The black boundaries delineate different Bain groups. (b) A spatial map colored according to the value of θ. This panel shows that the orientation may cross multiple variants of a given OR in a single Bain group while preserving a spatial continuity at this scale (i.e. θ varies much more than 7.54°, which is the smallest Δθ separating two variants in the cited ORs).
