Similarity Matrix of Proteins

Similarity Matrix of Proteins (SIMAP) is a database of protein similarities created using volunteer computing.[1][2] It is freely accessible for scientific purposes. SIMAP uses the FASTA algorithm to precalculate protein similarity, while another application uses hidden Markov models to search for protein domains. SIMAP is a joint project of the Technical University of Munich, the Helmholtz Zentrum München, and the University of Vienna.
