Multiple alignment-free sequence comparison [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2013 Abstract Motivation: Recently, a range of new statistics have become available for the alignment-free comparison of two sequences based on k-tuple word content. Here, we extend these statistics to the simultaneous comparison of more than two sequences.

Formatt: Correcting protein multiple structural alignments by incorporating sequence alignment
BMC Bioinformatics, 2012 Background The quality of multiple protein structure alignments are usually computed and assessed based on geometric functions of the coordinates of the backbone atoms from the protein chains.

CMSA: a heterogeneous CPU/GPU computing system for multiple similar RNA/DNA sequence alignment
BMC Bioinformatics, 2017 Background The multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a classic and powerful technique for sequence analysis in bioinformatics. With the rapid growth of biological datasets, MSA parallelization becomes necessary to keep its running time in an acceptable ...

An Optimized System for Multiple Sequence Alignment
2009 International Conference on Reconfigurable Computing and FPGAs, 2009 Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is one of the essential operations for identifying functional and structural relations among proteins. The execution of an MSA algorithm requires high-performance platforms. This paper presents a hardware system that speeds up the popular MSA software ClustalW.

IBBOMSA: An Improved Biogeography-based Approach for Multiple Sequence Alignment
Evolutionary Bioinformatics, 2016 In bioinformatics, multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is an NP-hard problem. Hence, nature-inspired techniques can better approximate the solution. In the current study, a novel biogeography-based optimization (NBBO) is proposed to solve an MSA problem ...
