Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a cornerstone of computational biology, facilitating the exploration of functional, structural and evolutionary relationships among biological sequences.

Dynamic programming algorithms guarantee to find the optimal alignment between two sequences. For more than a few sequences, exact algorithms become computationally impractical, and progressive ...

In bioinformatics, multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is an NP-hard problem. Nature-inspired approaches can provide an approximate solution compared to conventional approaches. In this article, the MSA ...

Bioinformatics researchers who perform alignments of long protein sequences face a difficult choice: They can get accurate results in hours (sometimes days), or quick results if they're willing to ...

Since it was launched in November of last year, Phylo has helped to supply researchers with more than 350,000 solutions to DNA problems Over the past year our genetic understanding of diseases such as ...

We have used the "ClustralW" protein sequence alignment program of the HUSAR/EMBL/Heidelberg platform to establish a multiple sequence alignment file [.msf] of the connexins zebrafish Cx52.6 (acc. no.

In a new article, researchers explain their work on computer-assisted approaches towards surveillance and consequent design of drugs and vaccines to combat the growth and spread of the Zika virus. The ...
