Alignment Metric Accuracy [PDF]
We propose a metric for the space of multiple sequence alignments that can be used to compare two alignments to each other. In the case where one of the alignments is a reference alignment, the resulting accuracy measure improves upon previous approaches, and provides a balanced assessment of the fidelity of both matches and gaps.

Integrating alignment-based and alignment-free sequence similarity measures for biological sequence classification [PDF]
Alignment-based sequence similarity searches, while accurate for some type of sequences, can produce incorrect results when used on more divergent but functionally related sequences that have undergone the sequence rearrangements observed in many bacterial and viral genomes. Here, we propose a classification model that exploits the complementary nature

Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.

An Alignment Algorithm for Sequences [PDF]
This paper describes a new alignment algorithm for sequences that can be used for determination of deletions and substitutions. It provides several solutions out of which the best one can be chosen on the basis of minimization of gaps or other considerations.

Sequence Transduction with Recurrent Neural Networks [PDF]
Many machine learning tasks can be expressed as the transformation---or \emph{transduction}---of input sequences into output sequences: speech recognition, machine translation, protein secondary structure prediction and text-to-speech to name but a few ...

Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

Letter Change Bias and Local Uniqueness in Optimal Sequence Alignments [PDF]
Considering two optimally aligned random sequences, we investigate the effect on the alignment score caused by changing a random letter in one of the two sequences. Using this idea in conjunction with large deviations theory, we show that in alignments with a low proportion of gaps the optimal alignment is locally unique in most places with high ...

Unraveling the metastasis‐preventing effect of miR‐200c in vitro and in vivo
Advanced tumors and ineffective cancer treatments can lead to metastases in distant organs. The sole expression of microRNA 200c (miR‐200c) in breast cancer cells is shown to significantly reduce metastasis formation in xenograft mouse models. Various in vitro analyses revealed impeded migratory behavior, upon miR‐200c expression, as one prerequisite ...

Process-oriented Iterative Multiple Alignment for Medical Process Mining
Adapted from biological sequence alignment, trace alignment is a process mining technique used to visualize and analyze workflow data. Any analysis done with this method, however, is affected by the alignment quality.

The LEXOVE prospective study evaluated plasma cell‐free extracellular vesicle (cfEV) dynamics using Bradford assay and dynamic light scattering in metastatic non‐small cell lung cancer patients undergoing first‐line treatments, correlating a ∆cfEV < 20% with improved median progression‐free survival in responders versus non‐responders.
