摘要
En 中文
We present a new method for multiple sequence alignment (MSA), which we call MSACSA. The method is based on the direct application of a global optimization method called the conformational space annealing (CSA) to a consistency-based score function constructed from pairwise sequence alignments between constituting sequences. We applied MSACSA to two MSA databases, the 82 families from the BAliBASE reference set 1 and the 366 families from the HOMSTRAD set. In all 450 cases, we obtained well optimized alignments satisfying more pairwise constraints producing, in consequence, more accurate alignments on average compared with a recent alignment method SPEM. One of the advantages of MSACSA is that it provides not just the global minimum alignment but also many distinct low-lying suboptimal alignments for a given objective function. This is due to the fact that conformational space annealing can maintain conformational diversity while searching for the conformations with low energies. This characteristics can help us to alleviate the problem arising from using an inaccurate score function. The method was the key factor for our success in the recent blind protein structure prediction experiment.
