Description-en: low complexity and tandem repeat masker for biosequences
tantan is a tool to mask simple regions (low complexity and short-period tandem
repeats) in DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. The aim of tantan is to prevent
false predictions when searching for homologous regions between two sequences.
Simple repeats often align strongly to each other, causing false homology
predictions.
