Figure S1. The relationship between maximum PWM score and information content of PWMs. Individual dots represents each PWM generated from the non-redundant PFM JASPAR-CORE database [5] after the filtering procedures specified in the Methods section. There is a strong positive correlation between the information content of the PWM and the maximum possible PWM score that could be generated by that PWM, with an adjusted R 2 value of 0.597.
