let me clarify my input and output that I want

input- a sequence 

.........RKRMMWW*VWMWRYHDWMH*HR*DRMDMWHMWYVMWVRWMVBHWKVYWSMHYWY*HWVMVS
+KDHMDBYKMWRSMDSD*...**Y*WD*VWDRYHHYRYKRWWDDKDDH*DV**HYW*RW*WMYMRV*BWB
+WWDMVSYWDBDWWYSMKW*YRVWVYYRMV*KRK*WWDMRMWR*KR**YWHHWH...DYD*MWKKKKWS

here are the potential subsequences that I am looking for from this sequence:

Output in the order of the occurrence in the sequence (from left to right)


1. *VWMWRYHDWMH*HR* (3 *, 16 length)
2. *HWVMVSKDHMDBYKMWRSMDSD* (2 *, 24 length)
3. *...**Y*WD* (5 *, 11 length)
4. *HDV**HYW*RW*WMYMRV* (6 *, 20 length)
5. *YRVWVYYRMV*KRK*WWDMRMWR* (4*, 25 length)
6. *KRK*WWDMRMWR*KR** (5 *, 18 length)
7. R*KR**YWHHWH...DYD* (4*, 19 length)

does this make sense?

I do not want the subsequences to overlap necessarily. The importance is more on the number of * than the length. For example, subseq with 6* and 10 length is as good as subseq with 6* and 20 length. So as shorter/longer the subseq could be with max * is accepted (though in the range 10-25)
