May 2022: Protein BLAST

Protein BLAST is now available on our BLAST tool.

In addition to the nucleotide BLAST interface, we created a new tab on our BLAST page for proteins. The databases were arranged chronologically (newer databases go to the top) and by crops. So far, we created eight protein sequence databases that were generated by the sequencing and annotation groups for wheat (Chinese Spring, Kariega, Fielder, Zavitan, and durum), barley (Morex), rye (Weining), and oat (OT3098).

The server will accept amino acid sequences in addition to DNA sequences and a collection of Protein Databases is now available through the Protein tab in the application.

Tutorials on using BLAST are available on our Tutorial page.
