  • Pair-wise comparison of DNA sequences

    Hi,
    I'm hoping someone can help me with what I presume to be a simple task, but one I couldn't find a solution to myself

    I have a table of DNA sequences with two columns, like this:

    Seq1 Seq2
    AAGGTTCC GAGGTTCA
    GGTTCCAA TTAACTAC
    ...

    Now, I would like to do a pairwise comparison of these sequences and get a "similarity score" out of it...
    I.e. comparing Seq1 and Seq2 on a per-row basis, not across columns or an Seq1 to Seq2 comparison of all sequences.

    If an R package is available I would be extremely happy, but other options are of course more than welcome

    Thanks!


    EDIT
    I should mention that all sequences will be of the same length.
    The exact length is undecided, 12 at the shortest, 30 at the longest. It will depend on how results look.

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
