PSAR-Align: improving multiple sequence alignment using probabilistic sampling
SUMMARY We developed PSAR-Align, a multiple sequence realignment tool that can refine a given multiple sequence alignment based on suboptimal alignments generated by probabilistic sampling. Our evaluation demonstrated that PSAR-Align is able to improve the results from various multiple sequence alignment tools. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION The PSAR-Align source code (implemented mainly in ...
متن کاملPSAR: measuring multiple sequence alignment reliability by probabilistic sampling
Multiple sequence alignment, which is of fundamental importance for comparative genomics, is a difficult problem and error-prone. Therefore, it is essential to measure the reliability of the alignments and incorporate it into downstream analyses. We propose a new probabilistic sampling-based alignment reliability (PSAR) score. Instead of relying on heuristic assumptions, such as the correlation...
متن کاملProbCons: Probabilistic consistency-based multiple sequence alignment.
To study gene evolution across a wide range of organisms, biologists need accurate tools for multiple sequence alignment of protein families. Obtaining accurate alignments, however, is a difficult computational problem because of not only the high computational cost but also the lack of proper objective functions for measuring alignment quality. In this paper, we introduce probabilistic consist...
متن کاملMultiple Sequence Alignment Multiple Sequence Alignment
An algorithm for progressive multiple alignment of sequences with insertions " , 1. Introduction The problem of sequence alignment is to find the patterns of sequence conservation and similarity between pairs or sets of given sequences. In biological contexts, similarity between biological sequences usually amounts to either functional or structural similarities or divergence from a common ance...
متن کاملMultiple Sequence Alignment Using MATLAB
Sequence alignment is an important task in bioinformatics which involves typical database search where data is in the form of DNA, RNA or protein sequence. For alignment various methods have been devised starting from pairwise alignment to multiple sequence alignment (MSA). To perform multiple sequence alignment various methods exists like progressive, iterative and concepts of dynamic programm...
