A Comparative Analysis of Software Engineering Approaches for Sequence Analysis

A Brief Discussion Of Research Over Sequence Analysis

We have presented a brief summary of research done for sequence analysis, Bansal (1995) has presented a sophisticated way for the presentation of information in the form of a frame work which helps understanding multiple sequences as ADT (abstract tool to integrate information achieved from proposed idea). The authors tried to develop a library that could contain generic high level language for generation of useful phylo-genetic tree. Complex analysis at multiple sequences had been performed by derived groups of amino acids in homologous protein (sharing some common properties along with identification of constrained columns. A help from PROLOG TOOL was taken to apply proposed frame work.

Kappen and Salbaum (2003) had presented a sequence comparison approach that could annotate a comparison between a mouse chromosome 9 and a human chromosome 15, the data draft sequences had been obtained from genetic databases and a complex map containing 14 genes has been presented as a genome map, the framework described in the paper for data interpretation and demonstration can be quite helpful for generation of more complex maps provided time constrained is kept in mind, the ideas may lead towards implementation of automated genome annotation techniques. Another added benefit of this approach was the extraction of common properties between species.

Nahar, Hamel, Popstova and Gogarten (2007) had proposed an interactive tool which was web based and provided comparative genome sequence analysis. The authors have taken help from self adjusting maps for depiction of possible evolutionary concepts in to achieve certain results. The visual identification of horizontally transferred genes was not available in other techniques/tools.
