Fig. 4

The structural compactness of CST. A Rg plot shows the radial distribution function of CST as a function of time. This plot helps in understanding the changes in the size of CST in the presence of ligand over time and how the ligand affects its structural stability. B The SASA distribution provides information on the exposed surface area of CST and its complexes, giving insight into the protein’s exposure to the surrounding environment. The lower panels of the representation show the PDF (Probability Density Function) of the values, which helps to understand the average distribution of the Rg and SASA values for CST and its complexes
