Hi everyone,
currently I try to compare multiple genomes (3, a 4th might come).
To do that, I do a best reciprocal/bidirectional blast hit on protein level (I know, there are some shortcomings).
Now I have sometimes this "problem":
I understand the biology, that's not my question.
The question is: Where do I put this "hit" in my venn diagramm?
It obviously doesn't go in the middle.
I could make it 3 different hits, going in each of the overlaps between 2 genomes.
But...is that correct? Because you'd have the proteins from organism B (and C) both in the comparison to A and to C, each meaning it's "unique" to this comparison, which also isn't true.
What do I do with this?
I'm sure someone else must have figured it out, but I guess my google skills are right now lacking a bit.
If anyone could help me please....
