Aligning two sequences
January 4, 2007
To compare only two sequences that are already known to be homologous, coming from related species ‘BLAST 2 Sequence tool can be used.
‘BLAST 2 Sequence’ utilizes the BLAST algorithm for aligning two protein or nucleotide sequences(i.e DNA-DNA or protein-protein) sequence comparison.
The resulting alignments are presented in both graphical and text form.A World Wide Web version of the program can be used interactively at the NCBI WWW site.
Options:
>>strand option: Forward strand, reverse strand or both strand
>>Parameters: Reward for a match and penalty for a mismatch
>>view options: Strandard, mismatch highlight
>>Masking colour option: Black, grey and red
