AA_REDUCED {DECIPHER} | R Documentation |
The AA_REDUCED
list contains reductions of the standard amino acid alphabet (AA_STANDARD
).
AA_REDUCED
Reduced amino alphabets can sometimes improve sensitivity and specificity of finding homologous matches between amino acid sequences. The first twelve AA_REDUCED
alphabets were optimized for finding synteny between genomic sequences. The next 113 alphabets are from a review of published amino acid alphabets (Solis, 2015). The final 17 alphabets were optimized for amino acid classification.
