This is the series of blocks Amino acid substitution matrices (BLOSUM), all of which are derived based on direct on direct observation for every possible amino acid substitution in multiple sequence alignments.
A volt-ampere (VA) is the unit used for the apparent power in an electrical circuit, equal to the product of root-mean-square (RMS) voltage and RMS current.[1] In direct current (DC) circuits, this product is equal to the real power (active power) [2] in watts.
Volt-ampere (VA) is a measurement of power in a direct current ( DC ) electrical circuit. The VA specification is also used in alternating current ( AC ) circuits, but it is less precise in this application, because it represents apparent power , which often differs from true power . In a DC circuit, 1 VA is the equivalent of one watt (1 W). The power, P (in watts) in a DC circuit is equal to the product of the voltage V (in volt s) and the current I (in ampere s): P = VI. In an AC circuit, power and VA mean the same thing only when there is no reactance .
