4 Aligning Sequences: What For? Bi03a_7 Similarity: many equal aa-residues in an alignment Homology: 2 sequences have a common ancestor (father) similarity? homology! Types of Homology Bi03a_8 A Speciation B C C Duplication A is the parent gene Speciation leads to B and C Gene duplication leads to C B and C are ORTHOLOGS C and C are PARALOGS from Altman (1999) orthologs: genes with same function in various species, have arisen by speciation paralogs: have arisen by geneduplication events ( members of multigene families 4

5 Aligning Sequences: What For?, ctd. Bi03a_9 given a new sequence with unknown 3D structure & biological function 1) 2) Align it to sequences in DB and find similar sequences, with known structure & function suggestion: if sequence is similar, then strucutre & function might also be similar get an idea (learn something) about structure & function of new sequence Aligning Sequences: Flow Chart Bi03a_10 Choose two sequences Are the sequences protein sequences? No Do sequences encode protein (e.g., cdna)? No Does sequence encode proteins and have introns? No Yes Yes Yes Perform local alignment Translate sequences Predict gene structure Is alignment of high quality? No Alter parameters, e.g., scoriing matrix, gap penalties, and repeat alignment Yes Perform statistical test of alignment score Examine sequences for presence of repeats or low-complexity sequences Yes Did alignment improve? No Is the alignment score significant? No Sequences are not detectably similar Yes Sequences are significantly similar high resolution from Mount (2001) 5

The window size and stringency were both 1. high resolution from Mount (2001) Dot Matrix Alignment Bi03a_16 MODE: sliding window (window length w/stringency s) if at least s matches in window of length w: score = 1 otherwise: score = 0 high resolution Dot matrix analysis of DNA sequences encoding phage λ ci (vertical sequence) and phage P22 c2 (horizontal sequence) represors. This analysis was performed using the dot matrix display of the Macintosh DNA sequence analysis program DNA Strider, vers The window size was 11 and the stringency 7, meaning that a dot is printed at a matrix position only if 7 out of the next 11 positions in the sequences are identifical. from Mount (2001) 8
