Sigma 2.0 BETA
:: DESCRIPTION
Sigma (Simple greedy multiple alignment) is an alignment program with a new algorithm and scoring scheme designed specifically for non-coding DNA sequence.This problem is now growing in importance with the increasing number of fully-sequenced species. In particular, studies of gene regulation seek to take advantage of comparative genomics, and recent algorithms (such as PhyloGibbs) for finding regulatory sites in phylogenetically-related intergenic sequence require alignment as a preprocessing step.
