Description: comparison of biopolymers, commonly DNA and protein sequences
|
| 19 |
Wise2 is a package focused on comparisons of biopolymers, commonly DNA
|
| 20 |
and protein sequences. There are many other packages which do
|
| 21 |
this, probably the best known being BLAST package (from NCBI) and the
|
| 22 |
Fasta package (from Bill Pearson). There are other packages, such as
|
| 23 |
the HMMER package (Sean Eddy) or SAM package (UC Santa Cruz) focused
|
| 24 |
on hidden Markov models (HMMs) of biopolymers.
|
| 25 |
.
|
| 26 |
Wise2's particular forte is the comparison of DNA sequence at the level
|
| 27 |
of its protein translation. This comparison allows the simultaneous
|
| 28 |
prediction of say gene structure with homology based alignment.
|
| 29 |
.
|
| 30 |
Wise2 also contains other algorithms, such as the venerable Smith-Waterman
|
| 31 |
algorithm, or more modern ones such as Stephen Altschul's generalised
|
| 32 |
gap penalties, or even experimental ones developed in house, such as
|
| 33 |
dba. The development of these algorithms is due to the ease of developing
|
| 34 |
such algorithms in the enviroment used by Wise2.
|
| 35 |
.
|
| 36 |
Wise2 has also been written with an eye for reuse and maintainability.
|
| 37 |
Although it is a pure C package you can access its functionality
|
| 38 |
directly in Perl. Parts of the package (or the entire package) can
|
| 39 |
be used by other C or C++ programs without namespace clashes as all
|
| 40 |
externally linked variables have the unique identifier Wise2 prepended.
