Aligning coding sequences with frameshift extension penalties
Abstract Background Frameshift translation is an important phenomenon that contributes to the appearance of novel coding DNA sequences (CDS) and functions in gene evolution, by allowing alternative amino acid translations of gene coding regions. Frameshift translations can be identified by aligning...
