Figure 1
Visualization of maximal motifs. The hypothetical compartment C illustrated in this figure contains two maximal motif sets: {A,B,C} and {A,D}. Nonempty subsets of these motif sets are themselves considered to be motif sets but are not maximal (such as, e.g., {A,B}). {A} is a nonmaximal motif set that is common to both the {A,B,C} and {A,D} maximal motif sets.
