Tests for the statistical significance of protein sequence similarities in data-bank searches.
A suite of tests to evaluate the statistical significance of protein sequence similarities is developed for use in data bank searches. The tests are based on the Wilbur-Lipman word-search algorithm, and take into account the sequence lengths and compositions, and optionally the weighting of amino ac...
