Appendix A: NCBI Display Formats
Option 9: Tabular, with Comment Lines
The format of Figure A-10 is the same as that in Option 8 (Figure A-9), except it
includes four header lines at the top of each query that describe the BLAST program,
the query, the database, and the fields of the alignment.
Option 10: ASN.1 Text Format
Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) is an International Standards Organization
(ISO) data format. ASN.1 is used to mark up data for reliable, robust exchange. Like
XML, it isn’t meant to be human-readable, but Example A-1 shows the first few lines
Figure A-8. Option 7: XML format
Figure A-9. Option 8: Tabular, without comment lines
