Overview:
The KEGG SSDB (Sequence Similarity DataBase) organizes amino acid sequence similarities among all protein-coding genes in complete genomes computationally generated from the geneS database in KEGG. Using the SSEARCH program, all possible pairwise genomes are compared and gene pairs with a Smith-Waterman similarity score of 100 or more are entered into SSDB together with the information on best hits and bidirectional best hits (best-best hits).
SSDB is a weighted and directed graph that can be used to search orthologs and paralogs, and conserved gene clusters, taking positional correlations on the chromosome into consideration.
