By making the world's microbial DNA easier to explore, a new sequence alignment tool, LexicMap, lets scientists search for a ...

Aligning multiple nucleotide sequences is a prerequisite for many if not most comparative sequence analyses in evolutionary biology. These alignments are often recognized as representing the homology ...

Bioinformatics researchers who perform alignments of long protein sequences face a difficult choice: They can get accurate results in hours (sometimes days), or quick results if they're willing to ...

In bioinformatics, multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is an NP-hard problem. Nature-inspired approaches can provide an approximate solution compared to conventional approaches. In this article, the MSA ...

By making the world's microbial DNA easier to explore, LexicMap helps researchers track outbreaks, study antibiotic resistance, and understand ...
