6 Similarity searches Concept Generalisation (asymmetric) of a pairwise comparison Query Subject sequence sequence Pairwise alignment sequence Similarity searches database Database vs. database database database september 2004 Page 6
7 Theoretical considerations Similar to those of pairwise comparison Sequence divergence is due to evolutionary mechanisms Sequence similarity allows information extrapolation: Sequence history and origin Biological function 3D structure Alignement types Global Local Alignment between the complete sequence A and the complete sequence B Alignment between a sub-sequence of A and a subsequence of B Computer implementation (Algorithms) Dynamic programing Global Needleman-Wunsch Local Smith-Waterman september 2004 Page 7
8 Problems to solve Similarity search mechanism A pairwise comparison is done successively between the query and every sequence of the database Obstacles The complexity of the task is proportional to the size of the database Extremely long running time of the search Difficult biological interpretation of the results Solutions Reduce search time by using more powerful computers Reduce search time by using newer and faster algorithms (heuristics) Sort and analyse the resulting alignments using statistical methods september 2004 Page 8
9 Definitions Query Sequence that is being compared against the database. Subject Sequence of the database that matches the query. Exact algorithm An exact algorithm is guaranteed to find the best alignment, or at least one of the best in case of a tie. Heuristic algorithm A heuristic algorithm is not guaranteed to find the best alignment. But good ones often do, and much quicker than exact ones. september 2004 Page 9
10 Some more definitions Identity Proportion of pairs of identical residues between two aligned sequences. Generally expressed as a percentage. This value strongly depends on how the two sequences are aligned. Similarity Proportion of pairs of similar residues between two aligned sequences. If two residues are similar is determined by a substitution matrix. This value also depends strongly on how the two sequences are aligned, as well as on the substitution matrix used. Homology Two sequences are homologous if and only if they have a common ancestor. There is no such thing as a level of homology! (It's either yes or no) Homologous sequences do not necessarily serve the same function Nor are they always highly similar: structure may be conserved while sequence is not. september 2004 Page 10
11 Alignment score Amino acid substitution matrices Example: PAM250 Most used: Blosum62 Raw score of an alignment TPEA APGA Score = = 9 september 2004 Page 11
12 Insertions and deletions Gap penalties gap gap opening gap extension Seq A Seq B GARFIELDTHE----CAT GARFIELDTHELASTCAT Opening a gap penalizes an alignment score Each extension of a gap penalizes the alignment's score The gap opening penalty is in general higher than the gap extension penalties (simulating evolutionary behavior) The raw score of a gapped alignment is the sum of all amino acid substitutions from which we subtract the gap opening and extension penalties. september 2004 Page 12
13 Alignment visualisation Matrix - Text - Dotplot An alignment is a path through a graph DotPlot: Graphical view in 2 dimensions Visual aid to identify regions of similarity Tissue-Type plasminogen Activator Urokinase-Type plasminogen Activator Seq Seq B B Seq Seq A A A-CA-CA ACA--CA A-CA-CA ACA--CA ACCAAC- A-CCAAC ACCAAC- A-CCAAC Address: september 2004 Page 13
14 Optimal alignment extension How to extend optimaly an optimal alignment An optimal alignment up to positions i and j can be extended in 3 ways. Keeping the best of the 3 guarantees an extended optimal alignment. Seq A a 1 a 2 a 3... a i-1 a i Seq B b 1 b 2 b 3... b j-1 b j Seq A a 1 a 2 a 3... a i-1 a i Seq B b 1 b 2 b 3... b j-1 b j a i+1 b j+1 Score = Score ij + Subst i+1 j+1 b j+1 Seq A a 1 a 2 a 3... a i-1 a i Seq B b 1 b 2 b 3... b j-1 b j Seq A a 1 a 2 a 3... a i-1 a i Seq B b 1 b 2 b 3... b j-1 b j a i b j+1 Score = Score ij - gap Score = Score ij - gap We have the optimal alignment extended from i and j by one residue. september 2004 Page 14
15 Exact algorithms (Needleman-Wunsch / Smith - Waterman) Simple example (Needleman-Wunsch) Scoring system: Match score: 2 Mismatch score: -1 Gap penalty: -2 Note G A T T A G A A T T C F (i-1,j-1) We have to keep track of the origin of the score for each element in the matrix. This allows to build the alignment by traceback when the matrix has been completely filled out. Computation time is proportional to the size of sequences (n x m). september 2004 Page 15 s (xi,yj) F (i-1,j) -d F (i,j-1) -d F (i,j) F(i,j): score at position i, j s(x i,y j ): match or mismatch score (or substitution matrix value) for residues x i and y j d: gap penalty (positive value) GA-TTA GAATTC
16 Heuristic algorithms Faster but less sensitive They use the dynamic programming approach like exact algorithms They try to limit its use to sequences which seem interesting The heuristic part of the algorithm tries to make a clever guess at which sequences would produce an interesting alignment. FASTA Developped by Lipman and Pearson in 1985 Tries to find sequences having identical words (or k-tuples = k consecutive residues) in common on a same diagonal. Compares the query sequentially to all those sequences in the database. Blast Developped by Altschul et al. in 1990 The most used and cited bioinformatics tool in biology Online tutorial: september 2004 Page 16
17 A Blast for each query Different programs are available according to the type of query Program Query Database blastp protein VS protein blastn nucleotide VS nucleotide blastx nucleotide protein VS protein tblastn nucleotide protein VS protein tblastx nucleotide nucleotide protein VS protein september 2004 Page 17
18 Access to Blast Web access Numerous web sites offer access to Blast servers NCBI (USA) where the Blast program was created Provide access to all Blast options and numerous databases User interface not very intuitive URL: EMBnet (i.e. Swiss node located in Lausanne at the SIB) Several servers across the world Provide access to all Blast options Provide a simplified and an advanced user interface Wide choice of databases URL: (Simple user interface) (Advanced user interface) september 2004 Page 18
19 Blast: the gory details Blast algorithm: creating a list of similar words A substitution matrix is used to compute the word scores Query REL RSL LKP score > T AAA AAA AAC AAC AAD AAD... YYY YYY List of all possible words with 3 amino acid residues score < T LKP LKP ACT ACT RSL RSL TVF TVF List of words matching the query with a score > T september 2004 Page 19
20 Blast: the gory details Blast algorithm: eliminating sequences without word hits Database sequences ACT ACT ACT ACT RSL RSL TVF TVF Search for exact matches RSL RSL RSL RSL TVF TVF List of words matching the query with a score > T List List of of sequences sequences containing containing words words similar similar to to the the query query (hits) (hits) september 2004 Page 20
21 Blast: the gory details (The End) Blast algorithm: extension of hits Database sequence Query A Ungapped extension if: 2 "Hits" are on the same diagonal but at a distance less than A Database sequence Query A Extension using dynamic programming limited to a restricted region september 2004 Page 21
22 Statistical evaluation of results Alignments are evaluated according to their score Raw score It's the sum of the amino acid substitution scores and gap penalties (gap opening and gap extension) Depends on the scoring system (substitution matrix, etc.) Different alignments should not be compared based only on the raw score Normalised score Is independent of the scoring system Allows the comparison of different alignments Units: expressed in bits september 2004 Page 22
23 Statistical evaluation of results 100% 0% Statistics derived from the scores p-value Probability that an alignment with this score occurs by chance in a database of this size The closer the p-value is towards 0, the better the alignment N 0 e-value Number of matches with this score one can expect to find by chance in a database of this size The closer the e-value is towards 0, the better the alignment Relationship between e-value and p-value: In a database containing N sequences e = p x N september 2004 Page 23
24 Low complexity regions Regions with a high frequency of only a few type of residues (= low complexity regions) may produce high scoring but biological uninteresting alignments, e.g. polyserine Such regions are, by default, filtered out by Blast. They appear masked with 'X' in the alignment. They are not taken into account for score computation september 2004 Page 24
25 Basic Blast on EMBnet Select the type of query Select the nucleotide database to search with either blastn, tblastn, tblastx Select the protein database to search with either blastp, Select the substitution blastx matrix to use Select your input type: Either a raw sequence or an accession or id number, as well as the database from which blast should retrieve your query september 2004 Page 25
26 Advanced Blast on EMBnet Greater choice of databases to search Advanced Blast parameter modification september 2004 Page 26
27 Search results Graphical visualisation and description of alignment scores september 2004 Page 27
28 Search results Alignment example Normalised score, raw score and e-value Percentage of identical aligned residues, percentage of aligned residues having a positive score in the substitution matrix Alignment (local) between the query and the database sequence. The middle line shows if a residue is conserved or not Low complexity region is masked with a series of 'X' september 2004 Page 28
29 Search results Search details (at the bottom of the results) Size of the database searched Scoring system parameters Details about the number of hits found september 2004 Page 29
30 Conclusions Blast: the most used database search tool Fast and very reliable even for a heuristic algorithm Does not necessarily find the best alignment, but most of the time it finds the best matching sequences in the database Easy to use with default parameters Solid statistical framework for the evaluation of scores but... The biologist's expertise is still essential to the analysis of the results! Tips and tricks For coding sequences always search at the protein level Mask low complexity regions Use a substitution matrix adapted to the expected divergence of the searched sequences (nevertheless most of the time BLOSUM62 works well) If there are only matches to a limited region of your query, cut out that region and rerun the search with the remaining part of your query september 2004 Page 30
