Candida albicans Genome Pattern Matching

Help

Pattern Matching allows you to search for short (<20 residues) nucleotide or peptide sequences, or ambiguous/degenerate patterns. It uses the same datasets as CGD BLAST. If you are searching for a sequence >20 bp or aa with no degenerate positions, please use BLAST, which is much faster. Pattern Matching allows for ambiguous characters, mismatches, insertions and deletions, but does not do alignments and so is not a replacement for BLAST. Please note, also, that PatMatch will not find overlapping hits.
