Abstract :
We develop a new sequence alignment called MTRAP by introducing a measure due to entangled correlation in two consecutive residues. We showed that the alignment accuracy could be improved by our approach. In the benchmark test by PREFAB 4.0, our method achieves the highest ranking compared with other methods such as ClustalW2, TCoffee and MAFFT.
