SANS / SANSparallel 2.3
:: DESCRIPTION
SANS is a program for searching protein sequence databases. It is as sensitive as BLAST when sequence identity is 50-100 %. SANS is faster than BLAST in batch mode. For example, a bacterial genome can be compared to Uniprot in one hour compared to 100 hours by BLAST.
SANSparallel takes a protein sequence as input and returns a set of similar sequences from Uniprot databases.
