Optimizing strategy for the discovery of compositionally-biased or low-complexity regions in proteins

Abstract Proteins can contain tracts dominated by a subset of amino acids and that have a functional significance. These are often termed ‘low-complexity regions’ (LCRs) or ‘compositionally-biased regions’ (CBRs). However, a wide spectrum of compositional bias is possible, and program parameters use...
