This was very concise and helpful

[@lblearner1946]

Thanks for making this informative video! It is super helpful!

[@BiologyLectures]

Thank you very much

[@dikshyapanthi7681]

Wow just awesome. Exactly what I was looking for as a beginner

[@BiologyLectures]

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you for your sharing! This helps a lot!

[@BiologyLectures]

You are welcome.

[@bismiakm9424]

Thank you for such an amazing learning experience 💫🥳🥳
Thank you Professor! I know how hard you work for students and it is difficult to teach most people whose second language is English. You are very patient and full of information.
🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@BiologyLectures]

Thank you very much for the kind words. Comments like yours really motivates us on keep creating more content. Thank you. And all the best

[@user-qj6sc4he9x]

It was really helpful and precisely well explained, thank you ❤️

[@BiologyLectures]

You are most welcome ❤

[@user-mk5ie6sw6f]

I just needed this

[@pverunique3635]

Thank you so much for this. It was amazing.

[@BiologyLectures]

You're so welcome!

Hello.
Some tutorials say we first need to break the sequences in chunks of size 6 and then align each chunk and count.
When do we need to use this method and when should we work with the whole sequence?

[@Hari788]

Excellent explanation sir. Thank you from my heart 💓

[@BiologyLectures]

You're most welcome

[@sudeepannigeri4172]

Can we get to know the identity and gap percentage in MUSCLE software (multiple sequence alignment)?? If yes, then how do we check for that?

[@markrobinson9676]

Thanks for sharing

[@BiologyLectures]

Thanks for watching!

[@drrrajkumar262]

Thank you so much

[@BiologyLectures]

You are most welcome 🤗

[@KarinPCrema]

Thx

[@BiologyLectures]

You are most welcome

[@rasheedkhan3159]

Thank you Sir really help me. Sir sequence similarity we can only find for protein sequences?

[@BiologyLectures]

You are most welcome. No, also for nucleotide sequences. Then, the similarity will depend on the distance between the sequences as well as on gaps etc.

CHEERS✨! Don't get left behind - P R O M O S M !!

[@BiologyLectures]

Thanks

[@ranjuchauhan6353]

Sir please reply to my question.
Which is the most accurate sequence alignment and why?
It's really urgent..

[@BiologyLectures]

The choice of method depends on the specific task. For closely related sequences, optimal alignments like Needleman-Wunsch and Smith-Waterman can be used. For aligning large datasets or finding remote homologs, iterative methods or HMM-based approaches might be more appropriate. It's essential to assess the specific requirements of the task and the characteristics of the sequences being aligned to choose the most suitable method.
