I was wondering if there was full explanation for each of the pieces of this part of the output.
Lambda K H
0.328 0.141 0.440
Gapped
Lambda K H
0.267 0.0410 0.140
Matrix: BLOSUM62
Gap Penalties: Existence: 11, Extension: 1
Number of Hits to DB: 455
Number of Sequences: 0
Number of extensions: 40
Number of successful extensions: 2
Number of sequences better than 100000.0: 1
Number of HSP's better than 100000.0 without gapping: 1
I am confused by this part of the output and was wondering if there was a full explanation anywhere.
Number of HSP's successfully gapped in prelim test: 0
Number of HSP's that attempted gapping in prelim test: 0
Number of HSP's gapped (non-prelim): 1

S2: 37 (18.9 bits)
I have a lot of educated guesses for most of them but I don't know if I understand the innards of BLAST well enough to be completely sure about any of my assumptions.
I am just curious! The more knowledge the better judgement in the future I say.
Thank you!
