Nucleotide to Nucleotide BLAST (blastn)

Request a New BLAST

Enter Nucleotide Query Sequence

Enter one or more queries in the top text box or use the browse button to upload a file from your local disk. The file may contain a single sequence or a list of sequences. In both cases, the data must be in FASTA format.

Show an Example Sequence

Enter FASTA sequence(s)

Enter query sequence(s) in the text area.

Or upload your own query FASTA:

The file should be a plain-text FASTA (.fasta, .fna, .fa, .fas) file. In other words, it cannot have formatting as is the case with MS Word (.doc, .docx) or Rich Text Format (.rtf). It cannot be greater than 8MB in size. Don't forget to press the Upload button before attempting to submit your BLAST.
