Abstract

BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) is a popular program that retrieves a library of sequences that resemble the query. The major problem experienced by new users of BLAST revolves around constructing syntactically and semantically correct command line, getting input files into acceptable formats and assessing the output. Here, we present Visual BLAST a Graphical User Interface to perform BLAST searches. Visual BLAST aims to make BLAST searches accessible to a wider audience with no bioinformatics skill and to facilitate usage among the existing.
