Summary: MuSeqBox is a program to parse BLAST output and store attributes of BLAST hits in tabular form. The user can apply a number of selection criteria to filter out hits with particular attributes. MuSeqBox provides a powerful annotation tool for large sets of query sequences that are simultaneously compared against a database with any of the standard stand-alone or network–client BLAST programs. We discuss such application to the problem of annotation and analysis of EST collections.

Availability: The program was written in standard C++ and is freely available to noncommercial users by request from the authors. The program is also available over the web at http://bioinformatics.iastate.edu/bioinformatics2go/mb/MuSeqBox.html.
