Description

Low-complexity regions (LCRs) are compositionally biased segments of proteins that play critical roles in molecular recognition, structural flexibility, and phase separation. Yet, their accurate detection remains challenging due to methodological variability among computational tools. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive benchmarking of eight widely used LCR detection methods (under multiple parameter settings) across the Homo sapiens proteome.
