Analyzing vertebrate genomes requires rapid mRNA/DNA and cross-species protein alignments. A new tool,
BLAT, is more accurate and 500 times faster than popular existing tools for mRNA/DNA alignments and 50
times faster for protein alignments at sensitivity settings typically used when comparing vertebrate se
