18 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.
