Regions with two amino acids in protein sequences: A step forward from homorepeats into the low complexity landscape

Low complexity regions (LCRs) differ in amino acid composition from the background provided by the corresponding proteomes. The simplest LCRs are homorepeats (or polyX), regions composed of mostly-one amino acid type. Extensive research has been done to characterize homorepeats, and their taxonomic,...
