The computational power needed for searching exponentially growing databases, such as GenBank, has increased dramatically. Three different implementations of the most widely used ...
Background: BLAST is a widely used genetic research tool for analysis of similarity between nucleotide and protein sequences. This paper presents a software application entitled &...
Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most commonly studied units of genetic variation. The discovery of such variation may help to identify causative gene mu...
BLASTn is a tool universally used by biologists to identify similarities between nucleotide based biological genome sequences. This report describes an FPGA based hardware impleme...
Background: Bacterial typing schemes based on the sequences of genes encoding surface antigens require databases that provide a uniform, curated, and widely accepted nomenclature ...
