how to find proteins nearest neighbors

Question

[heath]

Hey all,

if I have a protein gi? is there a fast way to find its nearest global structure/sequence neighbor and retrieve top 10/20 hits as protein gi's along with e-value and sequence/structure identities etc? can blastp command line obtain these?

Thanks!

Yes. Blastp does. Use NR database. It retrieves you all the nearest sequences from different organisms.
