They wanted to create a computer-operable algorithm to replace the visual comparisons used to study proteins at the time. This algorithm proved so useful it is still in use, with some modifications, today, and has inspired other algorithms, such as the Smith-Waterman algorithm, as well.}, doi = {10.1016/0022-2836(70)90057-4}, interhash = {1b4887f19d3545e349c7816a0412d416}, intrahash = {c144c5737eded1aa0605c02225d11744}, journal = {Journal of Molecular Biology}, keywords = {8 algorithms history proteins seminals}, month = mar, number = 3, pages = {443-453}, timestamp = {2017-10-25T21:30:37.000+0200}, title = {A General Method Applicable to the Search for Similarities in the Amino Acid Sequence of Two Proteins}, volume = 48, year = 1970 }
