✨ LAMBDA2 ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the lambda2 page — manual section 1, the big one 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

lambda2 — Lambda, the Local Aligner for Massive Biological DataA

(yes the trailing A is really there, no I'm not fixing it, we respect the lore 👑)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lambda2 [OPTIONS] COMMAND [COMMAND-OPTIONS]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Lambda is a local aligner, and not just any local aligner — it's optimized for MANY query sequences and for searches in protein space. It's compatible with BLAST, but it is much faster than BLAST and many other comparable tools. it's giving speed, it's giving compatible, it's giving main character energy 🔥

Detailed information is available in the wiki: https://github.com/seqan/lambda/wiki

  • COMMAND STRING — the sub-program you want to run. See below for the list. You gotta pick exactly one of searchp, searchn, mkindexp, and mkindexn. no command, no alignment, periodt.

  • searchp – Perform a protein search (BLASTP, BLASTX, TBLASTN, TBLASTX).
  • searchn – Perform a nucleotide search (BLASTN, MEGABLAST).
  • mkindexp – Create an index for protein searches.
