.. class:: warningmark 

Using a smaller word size (*Minimal Size of Exact Match*) will increase the computational time.

.. class:: warningmark 

Using a larger mismatch number (*Number of Mismatch in the Word*) will increase the computational time.

**What it does**
 
This tool currently uses the **BLAT** alignment program. Your short reads file is searched against a genome build or another uploaded file. 
 
-----
 
**Example**
 
- Input a multiple fasta file::

        &gt;seq1
        TGGTAATGGTGGTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTATTTTT

- Use the default settings:

  - alignment identity must be higher than or equal to 90%.
  
  - minimal size of exact match to trigger an alignment is 11.
  
  - allow 0 mismatches in the above exact match size.
  
- Search against ce2 (C. elegans March 2004), partial result::

        25 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 + seq1 36 10 36 chrI 15080483 9704438 9704464 1 26, 10, 9704438, ggttttttttttttttttttattttt, ggtttttttttttttttttttttttt,
        27 0 0 0 0 0 1 32 + seq1 36 9 36 chrI 15080483 1302536 1302595 2 21,6, 9,30, 1302536,1302589, tggtttttttttttttttttt,attttt, tggtttttttttttttttttt,attttt,

-----

**Parameters**

- *Minimal Identity* (**-minIdentity**) : In percent, the minimum sequence identity between the query and target alignment. Default is 90.

- *Minimal Size of Exact Match* (**-tileSize**) : The size of a match that will trigger an alignment. Default is 11. Usually between 8 and 12. Must be between 6 and 18.

- *Number of Mismatch in the Word* (**-oneOff**) : The number of mismatches allowed in the word (tile size) and still triggers an alignment. Default is 0.
