Hi,
I have a question regarding BLAT search
(http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgBlat?command=start). What is the
default cut-off value for the program? I saw in the details on the
same page mentioned that BLAT quickly find sequences of 95% and
greater similarity of length 40 bases or more. The results I got
sometimes have hits with lower identity (i.e, 80% identity) or with
short span length (i.e. ~20). Is it possible to know what is the
exact cut-off values you used?
Thank you very much.
Jittima
