 Basic SLURM example of nucleotide BLAST run against the non-redundant **nt** BLAST database with `8 CPUs` is provided below. When running BLAST alignment, it is recommended to first copy the query and database files to the **/scratch/** directory of the worker node. Moreover, the BLAST output is also saved in this directory (**/scratch/blastn_output.alignments**). After BLAST finishes, the output file is copied from the worker node to your current work directory.
