Abstract (EN): A workflow based on the Taverna Workbench (R) software and tentatively named WPSA was developed to perform a generic protein sequence analysis eliminating the need to cut and paste data throughout web applications. The program performs a homology search, a multiple sequence alignment and a phylogeny analysis using PHYLogeny Interface Package (PHYLIP). The workflow designed gives a fast and significant answer to the user about the input sequence entered taking between 5 to 10 minutes to run depending on the Internet connection and web services.
