The Algorithm
The quality score is calculated for each column in an alignment by summing, for all mutations, the ratio of the two BLOSUM 62 scores for -a mutation pair and each residue's conservered BLOSUM62 score (which -is higher). This valueis normalised for each column, and then plotted +a mutation pair and each residue's conserved BLOSUM62 score (which +is higher). This value is normalised for each column, and then plotted on a scale from 0 to 1.
