What is the general cut off used in CD-HIT when using a data set of closely related sequences for phyognetic analyses?

04 April 2016 1 6K Report

my dataset consists of highly similar sequences of proteins. i only wanted to remove duplicate sequeces if any in the data set. what threshold shall I set in CD HIT?

Sansrity Sinha

thank you so much. I wanted to ensure that no duplicate sequences are there in the dataset.
