USEARCH is a unique high-throughput sequence analysis tool. It is a distributed as single binary program that implements a suite of algorithms comparable to BLASTN, BLASTP, BLASTX, BLASTCLUST, CD-HIT, CD-HIT-EST, CD-HIT-2D, CD-HIT-EST-2D, CD-HIT-OTU, CD-HIT-454, ChimeraSlayer, Perseus, RAPsearch and more. It supports a rich set of sequence matching options, including E-values, identity, coverage (fraction of query or target sequence covered by the alignment) and maximum gap length, and a range of output file formats including FASTA, BLAST-like, user-defined tabbed text and a native format designed for clustering applications. Supported alignment styles include local (gapped and ungapped), like BLAST, and global, which is most often used in clustering applications. User-settable parameters allow tuning of substitution scores, gap penalties and Karlin-Altschul statistics.
USEARCH combines many different algorithms into a single package with outstanding documentation and support. This cuts your learning curve, reduces the number of steps you need to take for a given task, and slashes compute times. USEARCH will encourage you to explore your data, enabling new insights and suggesting new analyses that you might not have tried with slower tools.

They are often orders of magnitude faster than BLAST in practical applications, though sensitivity to distant protein relationships is lower.

Description

usearch website  

USEARCH is a unique high-throughput sequence analysis tool. It is a distributed as single binary program that implements a suite of algorithms comparable to BLASTN, BLASTP, BLASTX, BLASTCLUST, CD-HIT, CD-HIT-EST, CD-HIT-2D, CD-HIT-EST-2D, CD-HIT-OTU, CD-HIT-454, ChimeraSlayer, Perseus, RAPsearch and more. It supports a rich set of sequence matching options, including E-values, identity, coverage (fraction of query or target sequence covered by the alignment) and maximum gap length, and a range of output file formats including FASTA, BLAST-like, user-defined tabbed text and a native format designed for clustering applications. Supported alignment styles include local (gapped and ungapped), like BLAST, and global, which is most often used in clustering applications. User-settable parameters allow tuning of substitution scores, gap penalties and Karlin-Altschul statistics.
