Descriptif
We have seen with the Boyer-Moore algorithm how we can increase the efficiency of spin searching through the pre-processing of the pattern to be searched. Now we will see that an alternative way of improving the performance is to pre-process the text itself,the searchable text itself and we will, for that, study two methods, the construction of indexes of fixed length words and the algorithm which uses prefix trees. An index of fixed lengthword, what does it mean? Imagine you have a text, a searchable text, that is a text in which you want to search a pattern,here is quite a short text, the sequence is 14 correctors. We will build an index of allthe three letters which appear, a succession of three letters,which appear in the text. Here is the index. Howdoes it work now? Imagine you want to search for occurrences of this triplet, you look up in your index if you can find this triplet. Here and what do you read? You read that this triplet occurred in position Six and Ten. You do not have to make anycomparison on the text because the text has been processed, thisindex table has been built so that immediately from the triplets to be searched for, we can deduce the two positions of interest.

3.6. Boyer-Moore algorithm
RechenmannFrançoisWe have seen how we can make gene predictions more reliable through searching for all the patterns,all the occurrences of patterns. We have seen, for example, howif we locate the RBS, Ribosome

RechenmannFrançoisLast week we studied genes and proteins and so how genes, portions of DNA, are translated into proteins. We also saw the very fast evolutionof the sequencing technology which allows for producing

RechenmannFrançoisIf it is possible to have verygood predictions for bacterial genes, it's certainly not the caseyet for eukaryotic genomes. Eukaryotic cells have manydifferences in comparison to prokaryotic cells. You

3.4. Predicting all the genes in a sequence
RechenmannFrançoisWe have written an algorithm whichis able to locate potential genes on a sequence but only on one phase because we are looking triplets after triplets. Now remember that the genes maybe located on

RechenmannFrançoisUp to now, to predict our gene,we only rely on the process of searching certain strings or patterns. In order to further improve our gene predictor, the idea is to use, to rely onprobabilistic methods

3.5. Making the predictions more reliable
RechenmannFrançoisWe have got a bacterial gene predictor but the way this predictor works is rather crude and if we want to have more reliable results, we have to inject into this algorithmmore biological knowledge. We

3.9. Benchmarking the prediction methods
RechenmannFrançoisIt is necessary to underline that gene predictors produce predictions. Predictions mean that you have no guarantees that the coding sequences, the coding regions,the genes you get when applying your

3.3. Searching for start and stop codons
RechenmannFrançoisWe have written an algorithm for finding genes. But you remember that we arestill to write the two functions for finding the next stop codonand the next start codon. Let's see how we can do that. We

RechenmannFrançoisSo we understand why gene orprotein sequences may be similar. It's because they evolve togetherwith the species and they evolve in time, there aremodifications in the sequence and that the sequence
