A weighted HP model for protein folding with diagonal contacts

Hans-Joachim Böckenhauer, Dirk Bongartz (2007)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

Similarity:

The HP model is one of the most popular discretized models for attacking the protein folding problem, , for the computational prediction of the tertiary structure of a protein from its amino acid sequence. It is based on the assumption that interactions between hydrophobic amino acids are the main force in the folding process. Therefore, it distinguishes between polar and hydrophobic amino acids only and tries to embed the amino acid sequence into a two- or three-dimensional grid...

A sparse dynamic programming algorithm for alignment with non-overlapping inversions

Alair Pereira Do Lago, Ilya Muchnik, Casimir Kulikowski (2005)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Similarity:

Alignment of sequences is widely used for biological sequence comparisons, and only biological events like mutations, insertions and deletions are considered. Other biological events like inversions are not automatically detected by the usual alignment algorithms, thus some alternative approaches have been tried in order to include inversions or other kinds of rearrangements. Despite many important results in the last decade, the complexity of the problem of alignment with inversions...
