DCAlign is a new alignment method able to cope with the conservation and the co-evolution signals that characterize the columns of multiple sequence alignments of homologous sequences. However, the pre-processing steps required to align a candidate sequence are computationally demanding. We show in v1.0 how to dramatically reduce the overall computing time by including an empirical prior over an informative set of variables mirroring the presence of insertions and deletions.
DCAlign v1.0 is implemented in Julia and it is fully available at https://github.com/infernet-h2020/DCAlign.
DCAlign 是一种新的对齐方法,能够处理同源序列多序列比对列中的保守性和共进化信号。然而,对齐候选序列所需的预处理步骤计算量很大。在 v1.0 中,我们展示了如何通过包含对一组反映插入和缺失存在的信息变量的经验先验,来显著减少总体计算时间。
DCAlign v1.0 是用 Julia 实现的,可在 https://github.com/infernet-h2020/DCAlign 上获得。
