The phrase "alignment approach used" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing methodologies or strategies, particularly in fields like project management, research, or organizational behavior.
Example: "The alignment approach used in this study ensures that all team members are working towards the same goals."
Alternatives: "method of alignment employed" or "alignment strategy applied".
Each random database was submitted to the same all-versus-all alignment approach used for the real data, and the distribution of alignment scores considered the mean ± SD.
As our analyses confirm the studies of other authors that branch support values for some clades are highly dependent on the alignment approach used, we conclude that more attention should be given to alignment construction in phylogenetic analyses in general.
The local alignment approach used to map 98% of the reads against the WGS data 'soft-trimmed' the read end, which leads to a high proportion of aligned reads by removing non-matching ends.
Alignment of the 12 protein coding genes was done by eye whereas the 22 tRNA genes and 12S+16S rRNA genes were aligned with a probabilistic multiple alignment approach using ProAlign Ver. 0.5 [ 57].
This assumes that frame shifts never happen, and statistical alignment approaches using codon models may be more robust to this assumption.
Three measures were computed: (i) alignment conservation annotation measures the number of conserved physicochemical properties for each column of the alignment applying the approach used in the AMAS method [ 27]; (ii) alignment quality annotation is a measure of the likelihood of observing mutations (if any) in a particular column of the alignment.
Progressive alignment is the standard approach used to align large numbers of sequences.
A functional-module based alignment approach was used to predict system components in transcriptional regulatory networks in malaria parasite P. falciparum.
As in the UCSC genome alignments, this approach uses a BLASTz search to first identify homologous regions before aligning conserved blocks, and was shown to be more effective than other alignment algorithms at aligning highly diverged sequence, such as may be found in non-coding regions in between-species comparisons [55].
The basic approach used for alignment in the ITools suite combines evidence from various sources by assigning each piece of evidence a score and then calculating a joint score for all of them (cf. [ 18]).
An uniform alignment step precedes it to maintain a common alignment approach B) Using target:miRNA binding thermodynamic, implemented through RNAhybrid, initial set of targets are generated.
