Blast search

This page allows you to perform a homology search using the Blast algorithm installed in abYsis against a selection of sequences in the abYsis database.

Enter sequence data

Paste in your sequence selecting either Protein or DNA. You can only blast one sequence at a time.

Select database

Use the Select database dropdown to select the database against which you wish to search.

abYsis will determine the appropriate Blast program depending on the type of input and the database you have selected.

Click Submit to run the search.

Advanced options

Click the Show Advanced Options button to open a panel with advanced options - see the individual help on these options.

The default output format is the abYsis format which requires sequences to be successfully numbered.

Other display options are available such as the traditional Blast Pairwise output. This does not require sequences to be numbered in order to be displayed.
