不同程式之速度與靈敏度的比較

  • FastA 系列: 靈敏、但是速度較慢。只能以核酸序列比對核酸資料庫,或以蛋白質序列比對蛋白質資料庫。TFastA 則以蛋白質序列比對核酸序列資料庫。
  • Blast 系列: 搜尋速度很快,但在序列相似性較低時會有失誤,有可能會漏掉一些相關的序列。它是一組程式,會自動根據輸入的序列與所選擇的資料庫種類而執行適當的程式。在GCG的環境下使用私有的資料庫,而 NetBlast 可以選用美國 NCBI 的資料庫,這樣所比對的資料庫較完整,不像 GCG 的資料庫每兩個月才更新一次,在最近兩個月內新收錄的序列就無法被比對到。
  • Smith-Waterman 系列: 靈敏、但速度慢到必須用硬體加速才實用。

Protein DNA TFastA, TBlastN TFastA, TBlastN (gapped) Db automatically be translated in 6 frames+ before db search
DNA Protein BlastX FastX, BlastX (gapped) Seq. automatically be translated in 6 frames before db search
DNA EST TBlastX TBlastX (ungapped) Both seq. and db. automatically be translated in 6 frames before db search
DNA DNA - TFastX Frame-shifted alignment to translated DNA database

* Always choose "Blast2 Searches" in GenWeb to get a better performance.

+ Six frame translation: advantage; disadvantage.
