title: A new interactive protein sequence alignment program and comparison of its results with widely used algorithms.
abstract: A computer program that allows interactive sequence comparison is described. It graphically displays a search matrix using residue physiochemical characteristics and multilength segmental comparisons. The user selects through a mousing device and screen pointer the sequence spans to be matched. The results of this method are compared with those of ALIGN and BESTFIT.
