DIALIGN: multiple DNA and protein sequence alignment at BiBiServ
نویسنده
چکیده
DIALIGN is a widely used software tool for multiple DNA and protein sequence alignment. The program combines local and global alignment features and can therefore be applied to sequence data that cannot be correctly aligned by more traditional approaches. DIALIGN is available online through Bielefeld Bioinformatics Server (BiBiServ). The downloadable version of the program offers several new program features. To compare the output of different alignment programs, we developed the program AltAVisT. Our software is available at http://bibiserv.TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE/dialign/.

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...
متن کاملDIALIGN: finding local similarities by multiple sequence alignment
MOTIVATION DIALIGN is a new method for pairwise as well as multiple alignment of nucleic acid and protein sequences. While standard alignment programs rely on comparing single residues and imposing gap penalties, DIALIGN constructs alignments by comparing whole segments of the sequences. No gap penalty is employed. This point of view is especially adequate if sequences are not globally related,...
متن کاملA space-efficient algorithm for aligning large genomic sequences
SUMMARY In the segment-by-segment approach to sequence alignment, pairwise and multiple alignments are generated by comparing gap-free segments of the sequences under study. This method is particularly efficient in detecting local homologies, and it has been used to identify functional regions in large genomic sequences. Herein, an algorithm is outlined that calculates optimal pairwise segment-...
متن کاملMultiple Sequence Alignment Using Three- Dimensional Fragments
Background: Dialign is a DNA/Protein alignment tool for performing pairwise and multiple pairwise alignments through the comparison of gap-free segments (fragments) between sequence pairs. An alignment of two sequences is a chain of fragments, i.e local gap-free pairwise alignments, with the highest total score. METHOD: A new approach is defined in this article which relies on the concept of us...
متن کاملDIALIGN-TX and multiple protein alignment using secondary structure information at GOBICS
We introduce web interfaces for two recent extensions of the multiple-alignment program DIALIGN. DIALIGN-TX combines the greedy heuristic previously used in DIALIGN with a more traditional 'progressive' approach for improved performance on locally and globally related sequence sets. In addition, we offer a version of DIALIGN that uses predicted protein secondary structures together with primary...
