YASS :: genomic similarity search tool

home > DNA > yass

Data [?]

(1/2) Select the genomic (DNA/RNA) sequence(s) to be compared with YASS (1 sequence self-compared is no main diagonal ⇨ put it twice)

Upload your sequence(s)

choose your file(s), then press select

And/Or
And/Or
Paste your sequence(s)

copy/paste your sequence(s), then press select

And/Or
And/Or
Use proposed sequence(s)

choose the species/database (hold down [⇧ shift] key + type first letters) and the sequence, then press select

  (files)

(2/2) Please check the selected DNA sequence(s), then run YASS
