BLAST - Basic Local Alignment Search Tool - Bioinformatics Practical 5

BLAST or Basic Local Alignment Search Tool allows us to find local regions of similarity and infer homology between a query sequence (usually small) and a subject sequence (large - full genome, or a collection of multiple sequences). The query may be nucleotide or protein sequence. Accordingly BLAST comes in several flavors - here we discuss the basics of BLASTn - a DNA query compared to a DNA or RNA database. Here we infer the homologous locus for GAPDH gene from human in Chimpanzee genome.
