An
overview of the Apicomplexa BLAST Tools |
 NCBI Malaria Genetics
and Genomics Web site currently provides three malaria/mosquito-specific
BLAST capabilities and
one for all Eukaryotic genomes.
- Genome
BLAST contains Plasmodium yoelii and Plasmodium falciparum
sequence data obtained from the non-redundant (nr) database based on
a list of gi's (an generic identifier used to represent a specific sequence
in GenBank) shown in the Map Viewer. Use this if you want to BLAST the
P. yoelii whole shotgun sequence and P. falciparum complete
genomes.
- GenBank BLAST provides access to GenBank
records in nr,
HTGS, EST,
STS, and
GSS divisions
for Plasmodium falciparum only, all Plasmodium, and all
Toxoplasma. The HTGS division contains unfinished sequence submissions
directly from the P. falciparum Genome Sequencing Centers: Sanger Centre, Stanford,
and TIGR.
- NOT LONGER SUPPORTED: Custom BLAST provides access to
unfinished sequences "pulled" from the respective P. falciparum
3D7 Genome Sequencing Center's FTP sites: Sanger
Centre, Stanford,
and TIGR or
the Gene Sequencing Tag Project
at the University of Florida. The Custom BLAST database may contain
different sequences from the GenBank databases and is updated peridically
when data is made publicly available fom the sequencing centers. The
reporting page shows the sequences 1 kb upstream and downstream from
the alignment. To obtain the complete contig or shotgun sequence, please
refer to the sequencing center's FTP site. The data used to create the Malaria Custom BLAST database search is being maintained for archival purpose.

The BLAST
course includes three short articles by Stephen Altschul developed
from notes for a course given at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. Topics
covered are: statistics of sequence similarity scores, statistics of PSI-BLAST
scores, and iterated profile searches with PSI-BLAST (which includes a
working example).
The
BLAST Tutorial - This online tutorial is designed to help the first-time
BLAST user. This tutorial will teach you to input a sequence into the
Basic BLAST Web page, choose a program and database, and examine the results.
