Identification of regions in multiple sequence alignments thermodynamically suitable for targeting by consensus oligonucleotides
Background: Computer programs for the generation of multiple sequence alignments such as "Clustal W" allow detection of regions that are most conserved among many sequen...

Total sequence decomposition distinguishes functional modules, "molegos" in apurinic/apyrimidinic endonucleases
Background: Total sequence decomposition, using the web-based MASIA tool, identifies areas of conservation in aligned protein sequences. By structurally annotating these motifs, t...

160-fold acceleration of the Smith-Waterman algorithm using a field programmable gate array (FPGA)
Background: To infer homology and subsequently gene function, the Smith-Waterman (SW) algorithm is used to find the optimal local alignment between two sequences. When searching s...
