BLAST, gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST
1
Overview
Quick repetition of pairwise alignment
Statistical fundament of BLAST
The basic BLAST algorithm
Gapped BLAST
PSI-BLAST
2
Pairwise alignment
• Global alignment
– Needleman-Wunsch
• Local Alignment
– Smith-Waterman
• Dynamic programming, fill out matrix
• Find optimal solution
• Time complexity:
O(mn)
3
BLAST
Heuristic method
Fast search through large databases
Good but not necessarily best solution
Skip explicit search of the entire matrix
Extensions:
– Faster
– Include gaps
– Use position-specific scoring matrices
4
Statistical fundament
Recall random walks and extreme value
distributions
Assumption: Independet background
distribution of amino acids,
P

The

(cf. random walks – else drift to infinity)
