The Blocks Database contains multiple alignments of conserved regions in
protein families which can be searched by e-mail (blocks@blocks.fhcrc.org)
and World Wide Web (http://blocks.fhcrc.org/ ) servers to classify protein
and nucleotide sequences. Recent enhancements to the servers include: (i)
improved calculation of position-specific scoring matrices from blocks;
(ii) availability of the Prints protein fingerprint database for searching
in Blocks format; (iii) a representative sequence biased towards the Blocks
of a protein family; (iv) a tree constructed from the Blocks of a protein
family; (v) links to related World Wide Web pages for a family; and (vi)
the new Local Alignment of Multiple Alignments (LAMA) method to search a
block against a database of blocks.
