Description: Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is one of the most widely used sequence alignment programs, but none of the existing tools for processing BLAST output provide three-dimensional structure visualization. This shortcoming has been addressed in the proposed tool BLAST Server for Structural Biologists (BSSB), which maps a BLAST output onto the three-dimensional structure of the subject protein.
