Description: It provides a database based on a pre-computed similarity matrix covering the similarity space formed by >4 million amino acid sequences from public databases and completely sequenced genomes. The database is capable of handling very large datasets and is updated incrementally. For sequence similarity searches and pairwise alignments, we implemented a grid-enabled software system, which is based on FASTA heuristics and the Smith Waterman algorithm. SimpleSIMAP and AdvancedSIMAP retrieve homologs for given protein sequences that need to be contained in the SIMAP database. While SimpleSIMAP provides only selected parameters and preconfigured search spaces, the AdvancedSIMAP allows the user to specify search space, filtering and sorting parameters in a flexible manner. Both types of queries result in lists of homologs that are linked in turn to their homologs. So the web interfaces allow users to explore quickly and interactively the protein world by homology. Sponsors: SIMAP is supported by the Department of Genome Oriented Bioinformatics of the Technische Universitt Mnchen and the Institute for Bioinformatics of the GSF-National Research Center for Environment and Health.
