Calling Bioperl functions in MATLAB Documentation by Brian Madsen (NU and coop at the Mathworks) >> help perl PERL calls perl script using appropriate operating system PERL(PERLFILE) calls perl script specified by the file PERLFILE using appropriate perl executable. PERL(PERLFILE,ARG1,ARG2,...) passes the arguments ARG1,ARG2,... to the perl script file PERLFILE, and calls it by using appropriate perl executable. RESULT=PERL(...) outputs the result of attempted perl call.
Visual Tool: Dotplot (1) Pairwise sequence comparison
Visual Tool: Dotplot (2) Filtered Image The best alignment is achieved with dynamic programming . A score is obtained
Quantitative Tools To CheckStatistical Significance extreme value distribution. Score in bits Simulation with random sequences
PAM Evolution Model The score of a paiwise alignment is obtained by using a scoring matrix. We need a model to build scoring matrices. This model is based on evolution in order to calculate evolution distances between species. PAM means Accepted Point Mutation
Step 2: Mutation Matrices Markov Model pamX=(pam1)^X Stochastic matrices
Step 3: Distribution of Amino Acids Eigenvector of the mutation matrix (eigenvalue 1)
Step 5: Scoring Matrix The Dayhoff scoring matrix is symmetric

Conclusions • The highly efficient dynamic programming algorithms, used in this integrated environment, are particularly suitable for the high performance computers. • Trees constructed using optimal PAM distances are better than the routinesingle distance scores obtained using a single scoring matrix. • The unified approach for the sequence alignment and structure prediction provides a powerful formalism for biologists.
