Reticular alignment: A progressive corner-cutting method for multiple sequence alignment

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2010
Background In this paper, we introduce a progressive corner cutting method called Reticular Alignment for multiple sequence alignment. Unlike previous corner-cutting methods, our approach does not define a compact part of the dynamic programming table ...

MAFFT: a novel method for rapid multiple sequence alignment based on fast Fourier transform.

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2002
A multiple sequence alignment program, MAFFT, has been developed. The CPU time is drastically reduced as compared with existing methods. MAFFT includes two novel techniques.

Evolutionary distances in the twilight zone -- a rational kernel approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Phylogenetic tree reconstruction is traditionally based on multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) and heavily depends on the validity of this information bottleneck. With increasing sequence divergence, the quality of MSAs decays quickly.

Recent developments in the MAFFT multiple sequence alignment program

open access: yesBriefings Bioinform., 2008
The accuracy and scalability of multiple sequence alignment (MSA) of DNAs and proteins have long been and are still important issues in bioinformatics. To rapidly construct a reasonable MSA, we developed the initial version of the MAFFT program in 2002 ...

Multiple sequence alignment based on structural properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a sequence alignment of three or more biological sequences. Main idea behind multiple sequence alignment is to see the similarities between input sequences, to be able to make phylogenetic analysis and other ...

An Evaluation of Phylogenetic Workflows in Viral Molecular Epidemiology

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The use of viral sequence data to inform public health intervention has become increasingly common in the realm of epidemiology. Such methods typically utilize multiple sequence alignments and phylogenies estimated from the sequence data.
