چکیده

We introduce PASTA, a new method for multiple sequence alignment of datasets with up to 200,000 sequences in [3]. Here we provide supplementary information not provided in the main paper. We give exact commands used for running the experiments, we provide extra results that did not fit in the main paper, and we provide some supplementary discussion of the results.

PASTASpark: multiple sequence alignment meets Big Data

Motivation One basic step in many bioinformatics analyses is the multiple sequence alignment. One of the state-of-the-art tools to perform multiple sequence alignment is PASTA (Practical Alignments using SATé and TrAnsitivity). PASTA supports multithreading but it is limited to process datasets on shared memory systems. In this work we introduce PASTASpark, a tool that uses the Big Data engine ...

PASTA: Ultra-Large Multiple Sequence Alignment

In this paper, we introduce a new and highly scalable algorithm, PASTA, for large-scale multiple sequence alignment estimation. PASTA uses a new technique to produce an alignment given a guide tree that enables it to be both highly scalable and very accurate. We present a study on biological and simulated data with up to 200,000 sequences, showing that PASTA produces highly accurate alignments,...

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 ...

Parallelization of MAFFT for large-scale multiple sequence alignments.

Summary We report an update for the MAFFT multiple sequence alignment program to enable parallel calculation of large numbers of sequences. The G-INS-1 option of MAFFT was recently reported to have higher accuracy than other methods for large data, but this method has been impractical for most largescale analyses, due to the requirement of large computational resources. We introduce a scalable ...

trimAl: a tool for automated alignment trimming in large-scale phylogenetic analyses

SUMMARY Multiple sequence alignments are central to many areas of bioinformatics. It has been shown that the removal of poorly aligned regions from an alignment increases the quality of subsequent analyses. Such an alignment trimming phase is complicated in large-scale phylogenetic analyses that deal with thousands of alignments. Here, we present trimAl, a tool for automated alignment trimming,...
