Select the sequence database to run searches against. No BLAST database contains all the sequences at NCBI. BLAST databases are organized by informational content (nr, RefSeq, etc.) or by sequencing technique (WGS, EST, etc.). more...
A BLAST search enables a researcher to compare a subject protein (called a query) with a database of sequences, and identify database sequences that resemble the query sequence above a certain threshold.
The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) finds regions of local similarity between protein or nucleotide sequences. The program compares nucleotide or protein sequences to sequence in a database and calculates the statistical significance of the matches.

BLAST is a computer algorithm that can rapidly align and compare a query DNA sequence with a database of sequences. Learn how BLAST works, its applications in genomic research, and its history and development.
In bioinformatics, BLAST (basic local alignment search tool) is an algorithm and program for comparing primary biological sequence information, such as the amino-acid sequences of proteins or the nucleotides of DNA and/or RNA sequences.
ElasticBLAST is a suite of command line applications that distributes your BLAST searches across multiple instances in the cloud. It performs many cloud configuration and management tasks for you and supports most BLAST+ options.
