Fig. 3

Comparison of MMSD and SMD scores. Representation of the MMSD sum and SMD sum for every polymer combination as orange and blue bullet on every spoke, respectively. Trendline marks the overall change (increase or decrease) contributed by presence of different monomers. The distance from the centre is marked as the binding energy (BE) scale ranging from − 9.6 kcal/mol to -11.6 kcal/mol. Higher negative binding energy values or ∆G represents better binding affinity to the template.
