Table 1 Filtration criteria to sieve homologous sequences in each PSI-search iteration

From: Inter-protein residue covariation information unravels physically interacting protein dimers

Homolog filtration criteria

 

Sequence length

At least 80% of the query length but 78% in special cases

Sequence identity

Sequence identity of at least 40% [70] but 25%, 30% or 35% in special cases

Bit score

Bit score threshold of 0.5 \(\times\) monomer sequence length [42] and 0.45 \(\times\) monomer sequence length in special cases

E-value

E-value smaller than 0.0001

Overlap length

Overlap length threshold of at least 90% but 70%, 80% or 85% in special cases
