Factoid: Sequence comparisons lie at the heart of all bioinformatics
Similarity refers to the likeness or % identity between 2 sequences Similarity means sharing a statistically significant number of bases or amino acids Similarity does not imply homology Homology refers to shared ancestry Two sequences are homologous is they are derived from a common ancestral sequence Homology usually implies similarity Similarity versus Homology
Similarity versus Homology • Similarity can be quantified • It is correct to say that two sequences are X% identical • It is correct to say that two sequences have a similarity score of Z • It is generally incorrect to say that two sequences are X% similar
Similarity versus Homology • Homology cannot be quantified • If two sequences have a high % identity it is OK to say they are homologous • It is incorrect to say two sequences have a homology score of Z • It is incorrect to say two sequences are X% homologous
Homologues & All That • Homologue (or Homolog) • Protein/gene that shares a common ancestor and which has good sequence and/or structure similarity to another (general term) • Paralogue (or Paralog)平行同源 • A homologue which arose through gene duplication in the same species/chromosome • Orthologue (or Ortholog)垂直同源 • A homologue which arose through speciation (found in different species)

Some Simple Rules • If two sequence are > 100 residues and > 25% identical, they are likely related • If two sequences are 15-25% identical they may be related, but more tests are needed • If two sequences are < 15% identical they are probably not related • If you need more than 1 gap for every 20 residues the alignment is suspicious
Twilight Zone Doolittle’s Rules of Thumb
Sequence Alignment - Methods • Dot Plots • Dynamic Programming • Heuristic (Fast) Local Alignment • Multiple Sequence Alignment • Contig Assembly
Dot Plots • “Invented” in 1970 by Gibbs & McIntyre • Good for quick graphical overview • Simplest method for sequence comparison • Inter-sequence comparison • Intra-sequence comparison • Identifies internal repeats • Identifies domains or “modules”
Dot Plot Algorithm • Take two sequences (A & B), write sequence A out as a row (length=m) and sequence B as a column (length =n) • Create a table or “matrix” of “m” columns and “n” rows • Compare each letter of sequence A with every letter in sequence B. If there’s a match mark it with a dot, if not, leave blank

Dot Plots • Most commercial programs offer pretty good dot plot programs including: • GCG/Omiga/DS gene (Accelrys Inc.) • PepTool (BioTools Inc.) • LaserGene (DNAStar) • Popular freeware package is Dotter www.cgr.ki.se/cgr/groups/sonnhammer/Dotter.html • Dotlet http://www.isrec.isb-sib.ch/java/dotlet/Dotlet.html • JDotter http://athena.bioc.uvic.ca/sars/jdotter/main.php

Dynamic Programming • Developed by Needleman & Wunsch (1970) • Refined by Smith & Waterman (1981) • Ideal for quantitative assessment • Guaranteed to be mathematically optimal • Slow N2 algorithm • Performed in 2 stages • Prepare a scoring matrix using recursive function • Scan matrix diagonally using traceback protocol

Could We Do Better? • Key to the performance of Dynamic Programming is the scoring function • Dynamic Programming always gives the mathematically correct answer • Dynamic Programming does not always give the biologically correct answer • The weakest link -- The Scoring Matrix
Scoring Matrices • An empirical model of evolution, biology and chemistry all wrapped up in a 20 X 20 table of integers • Structurally or chemically similar residues should ideally have high diagonal or off-diagonal numbers • Structurally or chemically dissimilar residues should ideally have low diagonal or off-diagonal numbers

PAM Matrices • Developed by M.O. Dayhoff (1978) • PAM = Point Accepted Mutation • Matrix assembled by looking at patterns of substitutions in closely related proteins • 1 PAM corresponds to 1 amino acid change per 100 residues • 1 PAM = 1% divergence or 1 million years in evolutionary history
Dynamic Programming • Great for doing pairwise global alignments • Produces a quantitative alignment “score” • Problems if one tries to do alignments with very large sequences (memory requirement grows as N2 or as N x M) • Serious problems if one tries to align one sequence against a database (10’s of hours) • Need an alternative…..
