[BiO BB] Percentage sequence identity calculation program

[Ryan Golhar]

If you are referring to comparing two sequences, you can use a global
alignment tool (such as needle from EMBOSS).

Subject: [BiO BB] Percentage sequence identity calculation program


Hello,

I have a set of fragments of sequences which are of different length. I
want to calculate percentage sequence identity of those sequences. Which
program will be the fittest to do this type of calculation? I have seen
that lot of databases are reporting about percentage sequence identity
of the sequences used, but by which program they calculate it, I have no
idea about that. Please help me if anyone have any clue. Thanks in
advance,

Lipika
