Background: A structure alignment method based on a local geometric property is presented and its performance is tested in pairwise and multiple structure alignments. In this appr...
The alignment of multiple protein (or DNA) sequences is a current problem in Bioinformatics. ClustalW is the most popular heuristic algorithm for multiple sequence alignment. Pairw...

Background: Traditional genome alignment methods consider sequence alignment as a variation of the string edit distance problem, and perform alignment by matching characters of th...
Background: Identification of RNA homologs within genomic stretches is difficult when pairwise sequence identity is low or unalignable flanking residues are present. In both cases...

Background: Existing tools for multiple-sequence alignment focus on aligning protein sequence or protein-coding DNA sequence, and are often based on extensions to Needleman-Wunsch...
