10. BLAST X
Aim:
To find the similar sequence for a given nucleotide query using BLAST X.
Description:
Translated query Vs protein database (BLAST X) is useful for finding similar proteins to those
encoded by a nucleotide query. Translated query BLAST services are useful when trying to find
homologous protein to a nucleotide coding region. BLAST X compares translational products
of the nucleotide query sequence to a protein to a protein database. Because BLAST X
translates the query sequence in all six reading frames and provides combined significance
statistics for hits to different frames, it is particularly useful when the reading frames of the
query sequence is unknown or it contains errors that may lead to frame shifts or other coding
errors. Thus BLAST X is often the first analysis performed with a newly determined nucleotide
sequence and is used when extensively analyzing EST sequences. This search is more sensitive
than nucleotide blast since comparison is performed at the level.
Methodology:
1. BLAST can be accessed from the URL: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast
2. BLAST X was selected which was used for translated query and protein database similarity
search.
3. Paste __________ nucleotide sequence in FASTA format in BLAST page.

11. T BLAST N
Aim:
To find the similar sequences for a given protein query using t blast n.
Description:
Protein query Vs translated database (t blast n) is useful for finding protein homolog is annotated
nucleotide data. A t blast n search allows you to compare a protein sequence to the six reading
frame translations of a nucleotide database. It can be a very productive way of finding homologous
protein coding regions in an annotated nucleotide sequence such as expressed sequence tags
(EST’s) and draft genome records (HTG), located in the BLAST databases EST and HTG s
respectively.
Methodology:
1. BLAST can be accessed from the URL: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast
