SFESA
(Shift to Fix secondary structure ElementS in Alignments)
A tool to refine pairwise protein sequence alignment, with a combination of sequence and structural scoring by locally shifting secondary structure elements.[Documentation]

Enter query and template sequences in either of these formats:
A pairwise alignment   or Two unaligned sequences                  

Or upload a file with sequences  

Upload a template (or template homolog) structure file in pdb format (Strongly recommended)
Template structure file:  
Or enter PDB identifier: Chain:
