Abstract

Aligning large nucleotide sequences requires significant portion of the memory,
what in some cases is found as a limiting factor. Local pairwise alignment
methods require O(m) space, most of them being dynamic programming-based. In
this paper we present a new, space-efficient methodology and an algorithm for
optimal un-gapped local pairwise alignment, using non dynamic
programming-based approach.
A highest scoring un-gapped local alignment is found, identifying and
combining exact nucleotide matching regions, shifting one of the sequences over
the other. The number of shifts is score-dependent, what is a time complexity
advantage. An implementation of the proposed methodology was tested on
EMBL-EBI viroid genomes, always identifying an optimal un-gapped local
alignment, requiring on average m/2 space.
