Abstract
We have developed a multiple genome alignment algorithm by using a sequence clustering algorithm to combine local pairwise genome sequence matches produced by pairwise genome alignments, e.g, BLASTZ. Sequence clustering algorithms often generate clusters of sequences such that there exists a common shared region among all sequences in each cluster. To use a sequence clustering algorithm for genome alignment, it is necessary to handle numerous local alignments between a pair of genomes. We propose a multiple genome alignment method that converts the multiple genome alignment problem to the sequence clustering problem. This method does not need to make a guide tree to determine the order of multiple alignment, and it accurately detects multiple homologous regions. As a result, our multiple genome alignment algorithm performs competitively over existing algorithms. This is shown using an experiment which compares the performance of TBA, MultiPipMaker (MPM) and our algorithm in aligning 12 groups of 56 microbial genomes and by evaluating the number of common COGs detected.
