YASS: enhancing the sensitivity of DNA similarity search.

Abstract:

:YASS is a DNA local alignment tool based on an efficient and sensitive filtering algorithm. It applies transition-constrained seeds to specify the most probable conserved motifs between homologous sequences, combined with a flexible hit criterion used to identify groups of seeds that are likely to exhibit significant alignments. A web interface (http://www.loria.fr/projects/YASS/) is available to upload input sequences in fasta format, query the program and visualize the results obtained in several forms (dot-plot, tabular output and others). A standalone version is available for download from the web page.

    abstract::dITP may be generated from dATP by a slow, nonenzymatic hydrolysis. While [3H]dITP was degraded rapidly to [3H]deoxyinosine by HeLa cell nuclear extracts, no net degradation of [3H]dITP was observed in the presence of physiological concentrations of ATP, apparently because the extract contained deoxynucleoside diphosp...
