  • pairwise sequence alignment

    This is a primitive question but somehow I could not find a solution to it. I have two sequences 'large' and 'small' as given below.

    >large
    XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXGGGTTVTTSSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBGGGTTLTTSS


    >small
    GGGTTVTTSS


    I need to align the 'small' sequence to the 'large' sequence. Clearly there are two places where it can be aligned. I need to get indices of both the locations. I was trying BioPython's "pairwise2.align.globalms" function but it is only able to align to the second position.



    pairwise2.align.globalms(largeStr, smallStr, 2, -1, -1, 0, penalize_end_gaps=False)
    Ans:
    [('XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXGGGTTVTTSSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBGGGTTLTTSS',
    '-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------GGGTTLTTSS',
    20.0,
    0,
    99)]



    Which parameter can I change here or which other pachage/lightweight free software can compute this?

    Thanks

    bowtie or bowtie2, although overkill for a single reference, will report all alignments. For a short query sequence bowtie is probably better.

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

      Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
      by seqadmin


      Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
