5.1.28 LCASE_MASK

Parameter: LCASE_MASK

Description Masks the lowercase region of the query sequence
Value true, false
Default false
CMD Put
Example '...&LCASE_MASK=on&...' will turn on this masking

Note: This parameter instructs BLAST to skip the regions of the query that are in lowercase during hit table construction, so that matches to the remainder of the query can be better evaluated. Same as in wwwblast. Use '-U' in commandline BLAST.
