SPEM: improving multiple sequence alignment with sequence profiles and predicted secondary structures
MOTIVATION Multiple sequence alignment is an essential part of bioinformatics tools for a genome-scale study of genes and their evolution relations. However, making an accurate alignment between remote homologs is challenging. Here, we develop a method, called SPEM, that aligns multiple sequences using pre-processed sequence profiles and predicted secondary structures for pairwise alignment, co...
متن کاملImproving phonetic alignment by handling secondary sequence structures
In traditional alignment analyses, sequences are only compared with regard to their primary structure. Here, the term primary structure refers to the order order of segments, whereby segments are understood as the smallest units of a sequence which directly correspond to the characters of the alphabet from which the sequence is drawn. Apart from the primary structure, sequences can, however, al...
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.
Multiple sequence alignments are an essential tool for protein structure and function prediction, phylogeny inference and other common tasks in sequence analysis. Recently developed systems have advanced the state of the art with respect to accuracy, ability to scale to thousands of proteins and flexibility in comparing proteins that do not share the same domain architecture. New multiple align...
متن کاملMultiple protein sequence alignment.
Multiple sequence alignments are essential in computational analysis of protein sequences and structures, with applications in structure modeling, functional site prediction, phylogenetic analysis and sequence database searching. Constructing accurate multiple alignments for divergent protein sequences remains a difficult computational task, and alignment speed becomes an issue for large sequen...
