Genome sequencing studies to date have generally sought to assemble consensus genomes by merging sequence contributions from multiple homologous copies of each chromosome. With growing interest in genetic variations, however, there is a need for methods to separate these distinct contributions and assess how individual homologous chromosome copies differ from one another. An approach to this pr...

De novo Sequencing of peptides is a challenging task in proteome research. While there exist reliable DNA-sequencing methods, the highthroughput de novo sequencing of proteins by mass spectrometry is still an open problem. Current approaches suffer from a lack in precision to detect mass peaks in the spectrograms. In this paper we present a novel method for de novo peptide sequencing based on a...

Novel high-throughput (Deep) sequencing technology methods have redefined the way genome sequencing is performed. They are able to produce tens of millions of short sequences (reads) in a single experiment and with a much lower cost than previous sequencing methods. In this paper, we present a new algorithm for addressing the problem of efficiently mapping millions of short reads to a reference...

In the paper, the computational complexity of several variants of the problem of isothermic DNA sequencing by hybridization, is analyzed. The isothermic sequencing is a recent method, in which isothermic oligonucleotide libraries are used during the hybridization with an unknown DNA fragment. The variants of the isothermic DNA sequencing problem with errors in the hybridization data, negative o...

staphylococcus aureus carrying pvl gene remain major health problem associated with highly virulent infections. characterization of such gene is important to know the impact and the functional significance of nucleotide variations. pcr and standard sequencing were performed for twelve sudanese strains from different sources. protein structures prediction, modeling and physiochemical analysis we...

As more research centers embark on sequencing new genomes, the problem of DNA fragment assembly for shotgun sequencing is growing in importance and complexity. Accurate and fast assembly is a crucial part of any sequencing project and many algorithms have been developed to tackle it. Since the DNA fragment assembly problem is NP-hard, exact solutions are very difficult to obtain. In this work, ...

New generation sequencing technologies offer unique opportunities and challenges for re-sequencing studies. In this article, we focus on re-sequencing experiments using the Solexa technology, based on bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones, and address an experimental design problem. In these specific experiments, approximate coordinates of the BACs on a reference genome are known, and fi...
