HmmerResource NameHmmerProper CitationHmmer (RRID:SCR_005305)AbbreviationsHMMERResource Typesoftware application, software resource, data analysis service, service resource, data analysis software, analysis service resource, data processing software, production service resourceDescriptionTool for searching sequence databases for homologs of protein sequences, and for making protein sequence alignments. It implements methods using probabilistic models called profile hidden Markov models (profile HMMs). Compared to BLAST, FASTA, and other sequence alignment and database search tools based on older scoring methodology, HMMER aims to be significantly more accurate and more able to detect remote homologs because of the strength of its underlying mathematical models. In the past, this strength came at significant computational expense, but in the new HMMER3 project, HMMER is now essentially as fast as BLAST.Keywordshomolog, protein sequence, source code, FASEB listResource RelationshipsRelated ConditionFunding AgencyHoward Hughes Medical InstituteDefining CitationPMID:21593126, DOI:10.1093/bioinformatics/14.9.755AvailabilityWebsite StatusAlternate IDsOMICS_00996, nlx_144358Alternate URLshttps://sources.debian.org/src/hmmer/Old URLsParent OrganizationResource IDSCR_005305SynonymsHMMER - biosequence analysis using profile hidden Markov modelsMentions Count6894v_uuiddb1f6dc9-c6f2-5722-acf7-790c03f57e23Publications that use this research resourcePMID:37591927PMID:38233413PMID:38235362PMID:38179919PMID:38262942PMID:38262956PMID:38275820PMID:38299318PMID:38163883PMID:38038435PMID:38172513PMID:38256163PMID:38261648PMID:38256823PMID:38326362PMID:37987010PMID:37987564PMID:37889074PMID:38243165PMID:38172664PMID:38292428PMID:38293090PMID:38316773PMID:38317087PMID:38267446PMID:38267511PMID:38274325PMID:38274854PMID:38256065PMID:38256726PMID:38300968PMID:38326960PMID:36966917PMID:37994737PMID:37811892PMID:38216860PMID:38216888PMID:38200008PMID:38177998PMID:38163645PMID:38168076PMID:38256715PMID:38256833PMID:38257101PMID:38273309PMID:38269070PMID:38256188PMID:38260630PMID:38233809PMID:38234769PMID:38316929PMID:38333622PMID:38302528PMID:38307936PMID:38242964PMID:37864825PMID:38174583PMID:38147541PMID:38163888PMID:38200466PMID:38228714PMID:38255910PMID:38287457PMID:38247641PMID:38248329PMID:38298181PMID:38328004PMID:38331763PMID:37850635PMID:37798879PMID:38260252PMID:38260645PMID:38245743PMID:38263397PMID:38254999PMID:38255756PMID:38255867PMID:38256092PMID:38182724PMID:38109938PMID:38088546PMID:38228797PMID:38278802PMID:38281938PMID:38302866PMID:38274856PMID:38307917PMID:36515398PMID:37039477PMID:36935863PMID:36575582PMID:36798152PMID:36805209PMID:36835570PMID:36835781PMID:36834551PMID:36834598PMID:36597358PMID:36646746PMID:36646915
