algorithms for sequence analyis

Currently we are working on

 

multiple sequence alignment
we are currently at the design phase of a multiple sequence analysis tool, based on a fundamentally new approach to the problem; the algorithm works with iteratively constructed higher-order alphabets.
palindromicity analysis
Many functionally relevant DNA motifs are palindromic. We think that DNA palindromicity analysis could be a useful approach for pattern discovery, specifically for transcriptional regulator discovery. We have tested ...
molecular mimicry detection
New high performance cloud computation allows to face the search for shared local amino acid motifs comparing a huge amount of sequences. Viral receptors are between the targets that we want to explore using a new algorithm that we have designed for this task.
