SSS - Sequence Similarity Search service

The HGC SSS service integrates BLAST, FASTA, SSEARCH, EXONERATE and TRANS sequence similarity search programs.

Simple query

1. Select search method

2. Select database to search

3. Select sub category of the database

4. Enter query sequence (in FASTA format - example):

5. Specify type of your query sequence
