Optimal sequence alignments [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1983 Current theory is adequate to the task of finding an optimal alignment between two character strings such as nucleic acids. Most algorithms currently in use must fail to find the homologous alignment between a set of codons for the chicken α- and β-hemoglobin sequence when it is in fact discoverable by a more general treatment of gaps.

EMMA: a new method for computing multiple sequence alignments given a constraint subset alignment
Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2023 Background Adding sequences into an existing (possibly user-provided) alignment has multiple applications, including updating a large alignment with new data, adding sequences into a constraint alignment constructed using biological knowledge, or ...

NGlyAlign: an automated library building tool to align highly divergent HIV envelope sequences
BMC Bioinformatics, 2021 Background The high variability in envelope regions of some viruses such as HIV allow the virus to establish infection and to escape subsequent immune surveillance. This variability, as well as increasing incorporation of N-linked glycosylation sites, is

An enhanced RNA alignment benchmark for sequence alignment programs
Algorithms for Molecular Biology, 2006 Background The performance of alignment programs is traditionally tested on sets of protein sequences, of which a reference alignment is known. Conclusions drawn from such protein benchmarks do not necessarily hold for the RNA alignment problem, as was ...

The Sequence Alignment/Map format and SAMtools
Bioinform., 2009 Summary: The Sequence Alignment/Map (SAM) format is a generic alignment format for storing read alignments against reference sequences, supporting short and long reads (up to 128 Mbp) produced by different sequencing platforms.
