}}</ref> Instead of the alpha carbons typically used in structural alignment, SSAP constructs its vectors from the [[beta carbon]]s for all residues except glycine, a method which thus takes into account the [[wikt:rotamer|rotameric state]] of each residue as well as its ___location along the backbone. SSAP works by first constructing a series of inter-residue distance vectors between each residue and its nearest non-contiguous neighbors on each protein. A series of matrices are then constructed containing the vector differences between neighbors for each pair of residues for which vectors were constructed. Dynamic programming applied to each resulting matrix determines a series of optimal local alignments which are then summed into a "summary" matrix to which dynamic programming is applied again to determine the overall structural alignment.
 
SSAP originally produced only pairwise alignments but has since been extended to multiple alignments as well.<ref name="taylor">{{Cite journal
