One-Block CYRCA is an automated procedure for identifying multiple-block alignments from single block queries (http://bioinfo.weizmann.ac.il/blocks/OneCYRCA). It is based on the LAMA and CYRCA block-to-block alignment methods. The procedure identifies whether the query blocks can form new multiple-block alignments (block sets) with blocks from a database or join pre-existing database block sets. Using pre-computed LAMA block alignments and CYRCA sets from the Blocks database reduces the computation time. LAMA and CYRCA are highly sensitive and selective methods that can augment many other sequence analysis approaches.

Blocks is a database of highly conserved regions of proteins, or Blocks. THe database is no longer maintained or updated and some of its tools are no longer functional. However, Blocks does provide Block Searcher, Get Blocks and Block Maker, aids to detection and verification of protein sequence homology. They compare a protein or DNA sequence to a database of protein blocks (current version), retrieve blocks, and create new blocks, respectively. Users can further view blocks by (keyword or number), search a sequence against the database of blocks, search blocks against each other, or make blocks of their own.
