Service Description
GENESV service is designed to facilitate calculation of sequence alignmets between a given sequence (query) and a library of provided sequences. Calculations are performed using Smith-Waterman algorithm.
For GENESV processing all sequences (query sequence and a library) should be nucleic acid sequences entered in FASTA format.
A sequence in FASTA format begins with a single-line description, followed by
lines of sequence data. The description line is distinguished from the sequence
data by a greater-than (">") symbol in the first column (see an example below):
