Sequence alignment algorithms form the foundation of comparative genomics, structural biology and evolutionary studies by identifying regions of similarity among nucleotide or protein sequences.

Open-access databases such as the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) contain more than 2.4 million bacterial genomes, and this number continues to grow rapidly. Until now, searching these vast ...

We describe a novel algorithm for information recovery from DNA sequences by using a digital filter. This work proposes a three-part algorithm to decide the k-mer or q-gram word density. Employing a ...
