SEGID: Identifying Interesting Segments in (Multiple) Sequence Alignments
SUMMARY SEGID is a tool for finding conserved regions (regions of high scores) for a given (multiple) sequence alignment. It takes a (multiple) sequence alignment as its input and converts the alignment into a sequence of numbers, where each number is the alignment score of a column. Three algorithms are used to identify regions of high scores. A graphical interface is provided to present those...
متن کاملMultiple Sequence Alignments in Linguistics
In this study we apply and evaluate an iterative pairwise alignment program for producing multiple sequence alignments, ALPHAMALIG (Alonso et al., 2004), using as material the phonetic transcriptions of words used in Bulgarian dialectological research. To evaluate the quality of the multiple alignment, we propose two new methods based on comparing each column in the obtained alignments with the...
متن کاملEvolving Better Multiple Sequence Alignments
Aligning multiple DNA or protein sequences is a fundamental step in the analyses of phylogeny, homology and molecular structure. Heuristic algorithms are applied because optimal multiple sequence alignment is prohibitively expensive. Heuristic alignment algorithms represent a practical trade-off between speed and accuracy, but they can be improved. We present EVALYN (EVolved ALYNments), a novel...
متن کاملIdentifying sequence-structure pairs undetected by sequence alignments.
We examine how effectively simple potential functions previously developed can identify compatibilities between sequences and structures of proteins for database searches. The potential function consists of pairwise contact energies, repulsive packing potentials of residues for overly dense arrangement and short-range potentials for secondary structures, all of which were estimated from statist...
متن کاملMultiple Sequence Alignments with Parallel Computing
The growth of bioinformatics and computational biology industry, multiple sequence alignment (MSA) applications have become an important emerging workload. In spite of the large amount of recent attention given to the MSA software design, there has been little quantitative understanding of the performance of such applications on modern microprocessors and systems. In this paper we try to analyz...
