Hi everyone! I'm investigating about Low Complexity sequences in proteins but I have some problems chosing a Threshold that could actually helps to sunder when the LC content could influence the protein's behavior,e.g when i get a protein with five LC residues I would be prone to put that one in ~LC cluster. So the real question is, when do I have a content such to consider the LC presence significant in my sequence of AA?
Thank you in advance
See these posts, they may help you:
They show how to deal with LCR : some soft determines if the regions are LC-ones or not,
some mask them, etc.
