In Q2/2013, we will migrate the EMBnet server and phase out some of the resources such as BLAST or EMBOSS. We ask you to use BLAST on ExPASy and EMBOSS at EBI.

More information will follow soon.  


  • TMPRED Transmembrane regions detection
  • LALIGN Alignments of 2 sequences
  • PRSS Optimal score of an alignment
  • COILS Coiled-coil domains prediction
  • BOXSHADE Multiple alignments designer
  • ClustalW Multiple sequence alignment (<30 seq)
  • ClustalW-XXL Multiple sequence alignment (>30 seq)
  • T-COFFEE and more on Vital-IT
  • iPCR Virtual PCR tool
  • SRS7 searches at EBI
  • Fetch get sequences
  • FTP server Databases and software download
  • MyHits an interactive resource for protein annotation and domain identification
    • PSI-Blast Search databases with a protein or a multiple alignment
    • PatternFind Search a protein database with a pattern
    • Motif scan Search a motif database with a protein sequence
    • Dotlet 1.5 a Java applet for dotmatrix sequence comparisons
  • ESTScan2 Search DNA sequences for coding regions
  • EPD Eukaryotic Promoter Database
  • Cleanex Expression Reference Database
  • SSA Signal Search Analysis
  • Tagger Scan for small tags within a genome
