Abstract
Pattern-matching algorithms are a powerful tool for finding similarities and relationships among the steadily growing amount of known protein sequences. We present a fast, sensitive pattern-matching algorithm that describes a pattern by its physico-chemical properties rather than by occurrence ofamino acids, using a fast, dynamic programming algorithm. Selected examples will demonstrate applications and advantages of our approach.Keywords
