44 A key requirement is a sufficient statistical sampling, ie, large alignments to study sequence variation in the protein family of interest.
A sequence alignment was performed to study possible sequence recombinations among paralogues of the five GH1-gene cluster (Fig. 1).
We will use our anchored-alignment approach systematically to study the efficiency of objective functions and optimisation algorithms for our segment-based approach to multiple sequence alignment.
In our previous work [16], the LC cells with three different rubbing alignments were used to study the electrically controllable random laser from dye-doped liquid crystals, including NR, OSR, and TSRS.
Multiple sequence alignments are used to study gene or protein function, phylogenetic relations, genome evolution hypotheses and even gene polymorphisms.
More recent algorithms relying on alignments are used to study mosquitoes (Sieglaff et al., 2009), Fusarium (Kumar et al., 2010), vertebrates (Ettwiller et al., 2005) and mammals (Xie et al., 2005).
Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements of composite films were used to study alignment of nanostructures within the polymer.
Rheological studies with polymer solutions are conducted to study alignment and disentanglement of polymer chains at molecular level.
The ClustalW alignment program was used to study conservation of the mutation sites among different species [ 12].
