چکیده

UNLABELLED We present a tool suited for searching for many short nucleotide sequences in large databases, allowing for a predefined number of gaps and mismatches. The commandline-driven program implements a non-deterministic automata matching algorithm on a keyword tree of the search strings. Both queries with and without ambiguity codes can be searched. Search time is short for perfect matches, and retrieval time rises exponentially with the number of edits allowed. AVAILABILITY The C++ source code for PatMaN is distributed under the GNU General Public License and has been tested on the GNU/Linux operating system. It is available from http://bioinf.eva.mpg.de/patman. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

gpALIGNER: A Fast Algorithm for Global Pairwise Alignment of DNA Sequences

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...

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 ...

Getting More from Less ALGORITHMS FOR RAPID PROTEIN IDENTIFICATION WITH MULTIPLE SHORT PEPTIDE SEQUENCES*□S

We describe two novel sequence similarity search algorithms, FASTS and FASTF, that use multiple short peptide sequences to identify homologous sequences in protein or DNA databases. FASTS searches with peptide sequences of unknown order, as obtained by mass spectrometry-based sequencing, evaluating all possible arrangements of the peptides. FASTF searches with mixed peptide sequences, as genera...

Designing Of Degenerate Primers-Based Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) For Amplification Of WD40 Repeat-Containing Proteins Using Local Allignment Search Method

Degenerate primers-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) are commonly used for isolation of unidentified gene sequences in related organisms. For designing the degenerate primers, we propose the use of local alignment search method for searching the conserved regions long enough to design an acceptable primer pair. To test this method, a WD40 repeat-containing domain protein from Beauveria bass...

ApproxMAP: Approximate Mining of Consensus Sequential Patterns

Sequential pattern mining is an important data mining task with broad applications. However, conventional methods may meet inherent difficulties in mining databases with long sequences and noise. They may generate a huge number of short and trivial patterns but fail to find interesting patterns approximately shared by many sequences. To attack these problems, in this paper, we propose the theme...
