Use of FFT in Protein Sequence Comparison under Their Binary Representations

摘要

The paper considers Voss type representation of amino acids and uses FFT on the represented binary sequences to get the spectrum in the frequency domain. Based on the analysis of this spectrum by using the method of inter coefficient difference (ICD), it compares protein sequences of ND5 and ND6 category. Results obtained agree with the standard ones. The purpose of the paper is to extend the ICD method of comparison of DNA sequences to comparison of protein sequences. The topic of discussion is to develop a novel method of comparing protein sequences. The main achievements of the work are that the method applied is completely new of its kind, so far as protein sequence comparison is concerned and moreover the results of comparison agree with the previous results obtained by other methods for the same category of protein sequences.
