Improvement in accuracy of multiple sequence alignment using novel group-to-group sequence alignment algorithm with piecewise li
Background: Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a useful tool in bioinformatics. Although many MSA algorithms have been developed, there is still room for improvement in accuracy...

Pairwise Global Alignment of Protein Interaction Networks by Matching Neighborhood Topology
We describe an algorithm, IsoRank, for global alignment of two protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. IsoRank aims to maximize the overall match between the two networks; in c...

Accurate detection of very sparse sequence motifs
Protein sequence alignments are more reliable the shorter the evolutionary distance. Here, we align distantly related proteins using many closely spaced intermediate sequences as ...

MTRAP: Pairwise sequence alignment algorithm by a new measure based on transition probability between two consecutive pairs of r
Background: Sequence alignment is one of the most important techniques to analyze biological systems. It is also true that the alignment is not complete and we have to develop it ...
