Exon discovery by genomic sequence alignment
MOTIVATION During evolution, functional regions in genomic sequences tend to be more highly conserved than randomly mutating 'junk DNA' so local sequence similarity often indicates biological functionality. This fact can be used to identify functional elements in large eukaryotic DNA sequences by cross-species sequence comparison. In recent years, several gene-prediction methods have been propo...
متن کاملUncertainty in homology inferences: assessing and improving genomic sequence alignment.
Sequence alignment underpins all of comparative genomics, yet it remains an incompletely solved problem. In particular, the statistical uncertainty within inferred alignments is often disregarded, while parametric or phylogenetic inferences are considered meaningless without confidence estimates. Here, we report on a theoretical and simulation study of pairwise alignments of genomic DNA at huma...
متن کاملMauve: multiple alignment of conserved genomic sequence with rearrangements.
As genomes evolve, they undergo large-scale evolutionary processes that present a challenge to sequence comparison not posed by short sequences. Recombination causes frequent genome rearrangements, horizontal transfer introduces new sequences into bacterial chromosomes, and deletions remove segments of the genome. Consequently, each genome is a mosaic of unique lineage-specific segments, region...
متن کاملAccelerating Genomic Sequence Alignment using High Performance Reconfigurable Computers
Reconfigurable computing technology has progressed to a stage where it is now possible to achieve orders of magnitude performance and power efficiency gains over conventional computer architectures for a subset of high performance computing applications. In this thesis, we investigate the potential of reconfigurable computers to accelerate genomic sequence alignment specifically for genome sequ...
متن کاملA Novel Pseudo-Alignment Approach to Fast Genomic Sequence Comparison
Standard methods for sequence analysis and phylogeny reconstruction are based on (multiple) sequence alignments. These methods are known to be accurate but if larger genomic sequences are to be analysed they reach their limits. Consequently, faster but less precise alignment-free methods are increasingly used for genomic sequence analysis. In this work, a novel approach to fast genomic sequence...
