Bellerophon: a program to detect chimeric sequences in multiple sequence alignments
نویسندگان
چکیده
SUMMARY Bellerophon is a program for detecting chimeric sequences in multiple sequence datasets by an adaption of partial treeing analysis. Bellerophon was specifically developed to detect 16S rRNA gene chimeras in PCR-clone libraries of environmental samples but can be applied to other nucleotide sequence alignments. AVAILABILITY Bellerophon is available as an interactive web server at http://foo.maths.uq.edu.au/~huber/bellerophon.pl

متن کاملBellerophon : Graph analysis for improved EST clustering
Bellerophon is a set of Perl modules and application scripts that aims to improve the quality of EST clusters. Graph theory algorithms are applied to pairwise alignments to pinpoint putative chimeric ESTs, that is cutvertices of the alignement graph; theses putative chimeras are then studied individually at the sequence level to find evidences of their chimeric origin: restriction sites, polyA,...
متن کاملMolecular analysis of AbOmpA type-1 as immunogenic target for therapeutic interventions against MDR Acinetobacter baumannii infection
Introduction: Acinetobacter baumannii is associated with hospital-acquired infections. Outer membrane protein A of A.baumannii (AbOmpA) is a well-characterized virulence factor which has important roles in pathogenesis of this bacterium. Methods: Based on our PCR-sequencing of ompA gene in the clinical isolates, AbOmpA protein can be categorized into two types, named here type-1 and type-2. We ...
متن کاملA new computational method for detection of chimeric 16S rRNA artifacts generated by PCR amplification from mixed bacterial populations.
A new computational method (chimeric alignment) has been developed to detect chimeric 16S rRNA artifacts generated during PCR amplification from mixed bacterial populations. In contrast to other nearest-neighbor methods (e.g., CHECK_CHIMERA) that define sequence similarity by k-tuple matching, the chimeric alignment method uses the score from dynamic programming alignments. Further, the chimeri...
متن کاملwebPRC: the Profile Comparer for alignment-based searching of public domain databases
Profile-profile methods are well suited to detect remote evolutionary relationships between protein families. Profile Comparer (PRC) is an existing stand-alone program for scoring and aligning hidden Markov models (HMMs), which are based on multiple sequence alignments. Since PRC compares profile HMMs instead of sequences, it can be used to find distant homologues. For this purpose, PRC is used...
