Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TeX - Gotoh package, a case study / tex-bioinfo

TeX is appropriate for implementing many bioinformatics algorithms because these can be programmed with short codes, calculated with limited range of numbers, and produce visual results. As a case study, I present Gotoh, a LaTeX package which implements the Gotoh algorithm, a popular biological sequence alignment algorithm. This package is available from https://github.com/wtsnjp/Gotoh.

  1. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX

    Gotoh package, a case study Takuto ASAKURA (wtsnjp) The University of Tokyo TUG@BachoTEX 2017 1 / 11
  2. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Biological sequences DNA, RNA, Amino

    acids, etc. Biologists want to know the degree of similarity among 2 or more sequences. 2 / 11
  3. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Pairwise sequence alignment The problem

    Input: Two biological sequences A ≡ 123 . . . m, B ≡ b1b2b3 . . . bn where  and bj are chosen from a finite alphabet, e.g. {A, T, G, C}. Output: An alignment between A and B. Examples bachotex |||||||* bachotek context ||| ---tex- bioinformatics || **|| ** bi-----blat-ex | match * mismatch - gap 3 / 11
  4. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) LCS

    problem Want to get the LCS of A and B A simplest form of sequence alignment Score 1 for matches and 0 for gaps The solution s,j = mx    s−1,j s,j−1 s−1,j−1 + 1 4 / 11
  5. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX The Gotoh algorithm: DP Sequence

    alignment has a slightly more complex scoring scheme. Example mtch = 1, mismtch = −1, g() = −d − ( − 1)e The algorithm Sequence alignment in O(mn) time: M+1,j+1 = mx Mj, j, yj + cbj where +1,j = mx Mj − d, j − e, yj − d , y,j+1 = mx Mj − d, yj − e . 5 / 11

  8. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX The Gotoh package Usage \Gotoh{〈sequence

    A〉}{〈sequence B〉} Executes the algorithm Returns the results to specified CSs \GotohConfig{〈key-value list〉} Setting various parameters e.g. algorithm parameters, CSs to store results Example Input: \Gotoh{ATCGGCGCACGGGGGA} {TTCCGCCCACA} \texttt{\GotohResultA} \\ \texttt{\GotohResultB} Output: ATCGGCGCACGGGGGA TTCCGCCCAC.....A 8 / 11
  9. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Combining with TEXshade The TEXshade

    package A part of BioTEX, produced by Eric Beitz Shading and labeling preprocessed alignments Can be used to format the outputs of Gotoh Example \newcommand{\PrintAlignment}[3][\relax]{% \Gotoh{#2}{#3}% \immediate\openout\FASTAfile=\jobname.fasta \writeFASTA{> Seq 1^^J\GotohResultA}% \writeFASTA{> Seq 2^^J\GotohResultB}% \immediate\closeout\FASTAfile \texshade{\jobname.fasta}#1\endtexshade} Let me show you a demonstration! 9 / 11
  10. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Features and future Advantages The

    Gotoh package is: simple to use long-lasting cross-platform Future work Preparing the documentation Uploading to CTAN Adding some functions such as: showing edit graphs calculating multiple alignment (≥ 3 sequences) 10 / 11
  11. Implementing bioinformatics algorithms in TEX Conclusion Algorithms in any field

    which are: often used for creating documents easy to implement are worth implementing in TEX. Example diff function for listings Thank you & Happy TEXing!! 11 / 11
