Abstract. Metagenomics is the study of microbial communities sampled directly from their natural environment, without prior culturing. Among the computational tools recently develo...
A major hindrance to studies of microbial diversity has been that the vast majority of microbes cannot be cultured in the laboratory and thus are not amenable to traditional method...
Background: Metagenomic analyses of microbial communities that are comprehensive enough to provide multiple samples of most loci in the genomes of the dominant organism types will...

Abstract—We consider the problem of aligning multiple protein sequences with the goal of maximizing the SP (Sum-of-Pairs) score, when the number of sequences is large. The QOMA (...
Background: High quality sequence alignments of RNA and DNA sequences are an important prerequisite for the comparative analysis of genomic sequence data. Nucleic acid sequences, ...
