FASTA/SSEARCH/GGSEARCH/GLSEARCH - Protein Similarity Search
Provides sequence similarity searching against protein databases using the FASTA and SSEARCH programs. SSEARCH does a rigorous Smith-Waterman search for similarity between a query sequence and a database. GGSEARCH compares a protein or DNA sequence to a sequence database producing global-global alignment (Needleman-Wunsch). GLSEARCH compares a protein or DNA sequence to a sequence database. FASTA can be very specific when identifying long regions of low similarity especially for highly diverged sequences. You can also conduct sequence similarity searching against nucleotide databases or complete proteome/genome databases using the FASTA programs.

instead of returning the actual result, there is now a hyperlink
to your result pages.
