Protein Sequence Alignment for Two Protein Sequences

Protein Sequence Alignment for Two Protein Sequences

Usage

calcTwoProtSeqSim(seq1, seq2, type = "local", submat = "BLOSUM62")

Arguments

seq1

A character string, containing one protein sequence.

seq2

A character string, containing another protein sequence.

type

Type of alignment, default is 'local', could be 'global' or 'local', where 'global' represents Needleman-Wunsch global alignment; 'local' represents Smith-Waterman local alignment.

submat

Substitution matrix, default is 'BLOSUM62', could be one of 'BLOSUM45', 'BLOSUM50', 'BLOSUM62', 'BLOSUM80', 'BLOSUM100', 'PAM30', 'PAM40', 'PAM70', 'PAM120', 'PAM250'.

Value

An Biostrings object containing the scores and other alignment information.

Details

This function implements the sequence alignment between two protein sequences.
