(a) Design of a kAAmer database. Three key-value stores are created within a database (K-mer Store, Combination Store, Protein Store). Colours indicate the combination (hash) values that are reused in the combination store. Proteins are numbered (p01, p02, p03) and k-mers are numbered (k01, k02, ..., k08). (b) Protein search speed benchmark. Software include Blastp (v2.9.0+), Ghostz (v1.0.2), Diamond (v0.9.25) and kAAmer (v0.6) with (-aln) and without (-kmatch) alignment. (c) Protein search precision and recall benchmark with the ECOD database. The blue bars indicate the precision results and the red bars indicate the recall results. Software include Blastp (v2.9.0+), Ghostz (v1.0.2), Diamond (v0.9.25) and kAAmer (v0.6) with alignment.
