Alignment of DNA and protein sequences is a basic tool in the study of evolutionary, structural and functional relationship among macromolecules. Present sequence alignment methods are somewhat ...

Bioinformatics is the foundation of modern research, translating complex biological data into actionable insights by combining biology, computer science, and data analysis. Selecting the right ...

Paracel's New Search Tool Makes Sequence Alignment a BLAST Courtesy of ParacelResearchers use BLAST to search previously characterized DNA or protein sequences for partial or total matches.

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.

The classic methodology of inferring a phylogenetic tree from sequence data is composed of two steps. First, a multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is computed. Then, a tree is reconstructed assuming the ...
