  • Align two or more sequences using megablast (default), with the e-value threshold of 1e-9, pairwise output format (default):
    blastn -query query.fa -subject subject.fa -evalue 1e-9
  • Align two or more sequences using blastn:
    blastn -task blastn -query query.fa -subject subject.fa
  • Align two or more sequences, custom tabular output format, output to file:
    blastn -query query.fa -subject subject.fa -outfmt '6 qseqid qlen qstart qend sseqid slen sstart send bitscore evalue pident' -out output.tsv
  • Search nucleotide databases using a nucleotide query, 16 threads (CPUs) to use in the BLAST search, with a maximum number of 10 aligned sequences to keep:
    blastn -query query.fa -db path/to/blast_db -num_threads 16 -max_target_seqs 10
  • Search the remote non-redundant nucleotide database using a nucleotide query:
    blastn -query query.fa -db nt -remote
  • Display help (use `-help` for detailed help):
    blastn -h
