ublast command
Sensitive database search using the UBLAST algorithm . Alignments are local.
An E-value threshold must be specified.
A database file must be specified using the -db option. FASTA and .udb formats are supported. For large databases, .udb format is recommended (see makeudb_ublast command).
The - strand option is required for nucleotide databases.
Nucleotide, protein and translated searches are supported.
The - accel option tunes search speed against sensitivity. Smaller values are faster but tend to have lower sensitivity to hits with lower sequence identity. Default is 0.8. See UBLAST algorithm for more discussion.
