Statistical Significance from Shuffles

 PRSS/PRFX compute the statistical significance of an alignment by aligning the two sequences, and then shuffling the second sequence 200 - 1000 times, and estimating the statistical significance from the distribution of shuffled alignment scores.

Window shuffles are used to preserve local sequence composition, e.g. for transmembrane proteins.
