7.4 BLAST Database Search<br />

We now consider the most relevant case in practice. In this case, we have a query<br />

sequence and a database, and we wish to search the entire database to find all sequences<br />

that are homologies of the query sequence. In this case, significant highscoring<br />

local alignments, together with their P-values and E-values, are reported. In<br />

this section, calculations of P-values and E-values in BLAST are discussed.
