PLAST v2.3.1 – Parallel Local Alignment Search Tool for Database Comparison

PLAST v2.3.1

:: DESCRIPTION

PLAST (Parallel Local Alignment Search Tool for Database Comparison) is an intensive bank sequence comparison with a parallel version of BLAST-like software.The algorithm exploits two key parallel features of existing and future microprocessors: the SIMD programming model (SSE instruction set) and the multithreading concept (multicore). Compared to multithreaded BLAST software, tests performed on an 8-processor server have shown speedup ranging from 3 to 6 with a similar level of accuracy.

Stellar 1.4.11 – Local Pairwise Aligner

Stellar 1.4.11

:: DESCRIPTION

STELLAR (SwifT Exact LocaL AligneR)  is a local pairwise aligner  that has full sensitivity, i.e. guarantees to report all matches of a given minimal length and maximal error rate. The aligner is composed of two steps, filtering and verification. For filtering it applies the SWIFT algorithm, for which we have developed a new, exact verification strategy. STELLAR is very practical and fast on very long sequences which makes it a suitable new tool for finding local alignments in the edit or hamming distance model.

AlignNemo 1.1 – Local Network Alignment method to integrate Homology and Topology

AlignNemo 1.1

:: DESCRIPTION

 AlignNemo (Aligning Network Modules), is a novel algorithm that, given the networks of two organisms, uncovers subnetworks of proteins that related in sequence and topology. The subnetworks have a general topology and need not to correspond to specific interaction patterns thus more closely fit the models of functional complexes proposed in the literature.

Rnall 2.0 – RNA Local Secondary Structure Prediction

Rnall 2.0

:: DESCRIPTION

Rnall (RNA Local secondary structure prediction by Local symmetric mapping) predicts local RNA secondary structures for multiple sequences in the Fasta format or scans local secondary structure of a single genomic sequence in the Fasta format. Rnall scans the RNA sequence with a sliding window and extracts all LSS with sizes no longer than a window size using dynamic programming. Rnall has various potential applications, such as local secondary structure prediction in RNA molecules and RNA motif prediction (such as rho-independent/intrinsic terminator, riboswitch, siRNA, and viral RNA motifs).
