MO640 - Multiple-choice question
Which of the following statements is CORRECT?a) Local alignments are most useful when we have similar sequences and need to align every residue in these sequences.
b) Global alignments identify regions of similarity within long sequences that are often widely divergent overall.
c) Dynamic programming methods like the Needleman-Wunsch and the Smith-Waterman algorithms are reasonable choices to perform large-scale database searches.
d) Unlike dynamic programming methods, k-tuple methods like FASTA and BLAST are heuristics that guarantee to find an optimal alignment.
e) None of the above.
