Outline of tonight s lecture Summary of key points about pairwise alignment Introduction to BLAST: practical guide to database searching The BLAST algorithm BLAST search strategies Pairwise alignment: key points Pairwise alignments allow us to describe the percent identity two sequences share, as well as the percent similarity The score of a pairwise alignment includes positive values for exact matches, and other scores for mismatches and gaps PAM and BLOSUM matrices provide a set of rules for assigning scores. PAM and BLOSUM80 are examples of matrices appropriate for the comparison of closely related sequences. PAM250 and BLOSUM30 are examples of matrices used to score distantly related proteins. Global and local alignments can be made. BLAST Why use BLAST? BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) allows rapid sequence comparison of a query sequence against a database. The BLAST algorithm is fast, accurate, and web-accessible. BLAST searching is fundamental to understanding the relatedness of any favorite query sequence to other known proteins or DNA sequences. Applications include identifying orthologs and paralogs discovering new genes or proteins discovering variants of genes or proteins investigating expressed sequence tags (ESTs) exploring protein structure and function page 87 page

7 We will get to the bottom of a BLAST search in a few minutes Fig. 4. page 8 BLAST: background on sequence alignment BLAST: background on sequence alignment There are two main approaches to sequence alignment: [] Global alignment (Needleman & Wunsch 970) using dynamic programming to find optimal alignments between two sequences. (Although the alignments are optimal, the search is not exhaustive.) Gaps are permitted in the alignments, and the total lengths of both sequences are aligned (hence global ). [2] The second approach is local sequence alignment (Smith & Waterman, 980). The alignment may contain just a portion of either sequence, and is appropriate for finding matched domains between sequences. S-W is guaranteed to find optimal alignments, but it is computationally expensive (requires (O)n 2 time). BLAST and FASTA are heuristic approximations to local alignment. Each requires only (O)n 2 /k time; they examine only part of the search space. page 0 page 0; 7 How a BLAST search works How the original BLAST algorithm works: three phases The central idea of the BLAST algorithm is to confine attention to segment pairs that contain a word pair of length w with a score of at least T. Altschul et al. (9) (page, 2) Phase : compile a list of word pairs (w=3) above threshold T Example: for a human RBP query FSGTWYA (query word is in yellow) A list of words (w=3) is: FSG SGT GTW TWY WYA YSG TGT ATW SWY WFA FTG SVT GSW TWF WYS Fig. 4.3 page 7
8 Phase : compile a list of words (w=3) GTW 6,5, 22 neighborhood ASW 6,, 8 word hits ATW 0,5, > threshold NTW 0,5, GTY 6,5,2 3 GNW neighborhood GAW 9 word hits < below threshold Fig. 4.3 page A 4 R - 5 N D C Q E G H I L K M Pairwise alignment scores are determined using a scoring matrix such as Blosum62 F P S T W Y V A R N D C Q E G H I L K M F P S T W Y V Page 6 How a BLAST search works: 3 phases Phase 2: Scan the database for entries that match the compiled list. This is fast and relatively easy. How a BLAST search works: 3 phases Phase 3: when you manage to find a hit (i.e. a match between a word and a database entry), extend the hit in either direction. Keep track of the score (use a scoring matrix) Stop when the score drops below some cutoff.

In a 997 refinement of BLAST, two independent hits are required. The hits must occur in close proximity to each other. With this modification, only one seventh as many occur, greatly speeding the time required for a search. You can modify the threshold parameter. The default value for blastp is. To change it, enter -f or -f 5 in the advanced options. page 2 page 2 8

For local alignments (including BLAST search results), the statistics are well understood. The scores follow an extreme value distribution (EVD) rather than a normal distribution. probability normal distribution page 3 x Fig. 4.4 page 3 9
10 The probability density function of the extreme value distribution (characteristic value u=0 and decay constant λ=) probability normal distribution extreme value distribution x Fig. 4.4 page 3 Fig. 4.5 page 4 How to interpret a BLAST search: expect value The expect value E is the number of alignments with scores greater than or equal to score S that are expected to occur by chance in a database search. An E value is related to a probability value p. The key equation describing an E value is: E = Kmn e -λs page 5 This equation is derived from a description of the extreme value distribution S = the score E = Kmn e -λs E = the expect value = the number of highscoring segment pairs (HSPs) expected to occur with a score of at least S m, n = the length of two sequences λ, K = Karlin Altschul statistics page 5 Some properties of the equation E = Kmn e -λs The value of E decreases exponentially with increasing S (higher S values correspond to better alignments). Very high scores correspond to very low E values. The E value for aligning a pair of random sequences must be negative! Otherwise, long random alignments would acquire great scores Parameter K describes the search space (database). For E=, one match with a similar score is expected to occur by chance. For a very much larger or smaller database, you would expect E to vary accordingly page 5-6 From raw scores to bit scores There are two kinds of scores: raw scores (calculated from a substitution matrix) and bit scores (normalized scores) Bit scores are comparable between different searches because they are normalized to account for the use of different scoring matrices and different database sizes S = bit score = (λs -lnk) / ln2 The E value corresponding to a given bit score is: E = mn 2 -S Bit scores allow you to compare results between different database searches, even using different scoring matrices. page 6
11 How to interpret BLAST: E values and p values How to interpret BLAST: E values and p values The expect value E is the number of alignments with scores greater than or equal to score S that are expected to occur by chance in a database search. A p value is a different way of representing the significance of an alignment. p = - e -Ε page 6 Very small E values are very similar to p values. E values of about to are far easier to interpret than corresponding p values. E p (about 0.)
