Chaining Algorithms for Alignment of Draft Sequence
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a chaining method that can align a draft genomic sequence against a finished genome. We introduce the use of an overlap tree to enhance the state information available to the chaining procedure in the context of sparse dynamic programming, and demonstrate that the resulting procedure more accurately penalizes the various biological rearrangements. The algorithm is tested on a whole genome alignment of seven yeast species. We also demonstrate a variation on the algorithm that can be used for coassembly of two genomes and show how it can improve the current assembly of the Ciona savignyi (sea squirt) genome.

An Application of the ABS LX Algorithm to Multiple Sequence Alignment
We present an application of ABS algorithms for multiple sequence alignment (MSA). The Markov decision process (MDP) based model leads to a linear programming problem (LPP), whose solution is linked to a suggested alignment. The important features of our work include the facility of alignment of multiple sequences simultaneously and no limit for the length of the sequences. Our goal here is to ...

Bioinformatics, through the sequencing of the full genomes for many species, is increasingly relying on efficient global alignment tools exhibiting both high sensitivity and specificity. Many computational algorithms have been applied for solving the sequence alignment problem. Dynamic programming, statistical methods, approximation and heuristic algorithms are the most common methods appli...
متن کاملLocal Multiple Alignment Via Subgraph Enumeration
We discuss three problems, which we call blocking, chaining and jattenitrg, that arise when computing a multiple-sequence alignment from given pairwise alignments. Blocking is the construction of gap-free multiple alignments, each called a “block”, from the pairwise alignments; it is formalized here as the enumeration of maximal cliques in a certain graph. Chaining is the identification of a co...
متن کاملChaining Multiple - Alignment Fragments in Sub - Quadratic
We describe a multiple-sequence alignment algorithm for determining the highest-scoring alignment that can be obtained by chaining together non-overlapping subalignments selected from a given collection of such \fragments". For a given set of K sequences, a problem instance consists of a set of F precomputed fragments, an alignment score for each fragment, and a \gap" penalty function that assi...
متن کاملA generalization of Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) using one-by-one dependency between sequences
The Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) can be poor at capturing dependency between observations because of the statistical assumptions it makes. To overcome this limitation, the dependency between residues in a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) which is the representative of a PHMM can be combined with the PHMM. Based on the fact that sequences appearing in the final MSA are written based on th...
