SPARROW download page
On this page the software used on the SPARROW server can be downloaded to perform predictions locally instead of using the webserver. Both SPARROW and *SPARROW are available for download and both programs require PSI-BLAST together with the nr database to generate the sequence profile used as input for the prediction process. The software can be used free of charge for academic and private purpose.
