An optimal mesh algorithm for remote protein homology detection
description Remote protein homology detection is a problem of detecting evolutionary relationship between proteins at low sequence similarity level. Among several problems in remote protein homology detection include the questions of determining which combination of multiple alignment and classification techniques is the best as well as the misalignment of protein sequences during the alignment process. Therefore, this paper deals with remote protein homology detection via assessing the impact of using structural information on protein multiple alignments over sequence information. This paper further presents the best combinations of multiple alignment and classification programs to be chosen. This paper also improves the quality of the multiple alignments via integration of a refinement algorithm. The framework of this paperbegan with datasets preparation on datasets from SCOP version 1.73, followed by multiple alignments of the protein sequences using CLUSTALW, MAFFT, ProbCons and T-Coffee for sequence-based multiple alignments and 3DCoffee, MAMMOTH-mult, MUSTANG and PROMALS3D for structural-based multiple alignments.
