High Performance Multiple Sequence Alignment Algorithms for Comparison of Microbial Genomes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Advances in gene sequencing have enabled in silico analyses of microbial genomes and have led to the revision of concepts of microbial taxonomy and evolution. We explore deficiencies in existing multiple sequence global alignment algorithms and introduce a new indexing scheme to partition the dynamic programming algorithm hypercube scoring tensor over processors based on the dependency between partitions to be scored in parallel. The performance of algorithms is compared in the study of rpoB gene sequences of Mycoplasma species.

متن کاملAn 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 ...
متن کاملMultiple Genome Alignment by Clustering Pairwise Matches
We have developed a multiple genome alignment algorithm by using a sequence clustering algorithm to combine local pairwise genome sequence matches produced by pairwise genome alignments, e.g, BLASTZ. Sequence clustering algorithms often generate clusters of sequences such that there exists a common shared region among all sequences in each cluster. To use a sequence clustering algorithm for gen...
متن کاملA generalization of Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) using one-by-one dependency between sequences
The Profile Hidden Markov Model (PHMM) can be poor at capturing dependency between observations because of the statistical assumptions it makes. To overcome this limitation, the dependency between residues in a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) which is the representative of a PHMM can be combined with the PHMM. Based on the fact that sequences appearing in the final MSA are written based on th...
متن کاملGenoList: an integrated environment for comparative analysis of microbial genomes
The multitude of bacterial genome sequences being determined has generated new requirements regarding the development of databases and graphical interfaces: these are needed to organize and retrieve biological information from the comparison of large sets of genomes. GenoList (http://genolist.pasteur.fr/GenoList) is an integrated environment dedicated to querying and analyzing genome data from ...
