BLAST blastp protein similarity search (CNRS IBCP)

FAILED

Description

Find local similarity with the BLAST algorithm between a query sequence of protein and a reference database of proteins.

Usage

You need to provide the following input arguments to the service:

  • “Sequence” : the query sequence
  • “SeqDatabase” : the protein sequence database to compare the query to. The value of this argument should be an identifier get among the ones of the available databases on the remote server (swiss-prot, trembl, pdb).

The outputs of the service are:

  • “Status”: the status of the query
  • “JobId”: the JobId in the remote service environment
  • “SeqSimilar”: the sequences similar to the query identified by the service. The results are sent in the raw output format of the native tool.
