BlastP

We ran BlastP on student machines with the big_80 as a reference database.

<source lang="bash"> blastall -p blastp -d /mnt/project/pracstrucfunc12/data/big/big_80 -i P45381_wt.fasta -o blastp_p45381_wt_big80.out </source>

PsiBlast

PSIBlast was used in the same fashion as BLAST, with the big_80 as the background database.
