ODM BLAST: Sequence Homology Search in the RDBMS
نویسندگان
چکیده
Performing sequence homology searches against DNA or protein sequence databases is an essential bioinformatics task. Past research efforts have been primarily concerned with the development of sensitive and fast sequence homology search algorithms outside of the relational database management system (RDBMS). Oracle Data Mining (ODM) BLAST enables BLAST to be performed in a RDBMS. ODM BLAST relieves the burden of moving data out of the RDBMS, eliminates the need to parse data files, and allows BLAST results to be integrated with existing RDBMS data. Oracle has simplified BLAST searches to a single SQL statement. ODM BLAST shifts algorithm development from bioinformaticians to the RDBMS provider.

Modern BLAST Programs
The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is arguably the most widely used program in bioinformatics. By sacrificing sensitivity for speed, it makes sequence comparison practical on huge sequence databases currently available. The original version of BLAST was developed in 1990. Since then it has spawned a variant of specialized programs. This chapter surveys the development of BLAST and BL...
متن کاملIncluding Biological Literature Improves Homology Search
Annotating the tremendous amount of sequence information being generated requires accurate automated methods for recognizing homology. Although sequence similarity is only one of many indicators of evolutionary homology, it is often the only one used. Here we find that supplementing sequence similarity with information from biomedical literature is successful in increasing the accuracy of homol...

متن کاملSaturated BLAST: an automated multiple intermediate sequence search used to detect distant homology
MOTIVATION Two proteins can have a similar 3-dimensional structure and biological function, but have sequences sufficiently different that traditional protein sequence comparison algorithms do not identify their relationship. The desire to identify such relations has led to the development of more sensitive sequence alignment strategies. One such strategy is the Intermediate Sequence Search (IS...
متن کاملSequence clustering strategies improve remote homology recognitions while reducing search times.
Sequence databases are rapidly growing, thereby increasing the coverage of protein sequence space, but this coverage is uneven because most sequencing efforts have concentrated on a small number of organisms. The resulting granularity of sequence space creates many problems for profile-based sequence comparison programs. In this paper, we suggest several strategies that address these problems, ...
