Question
Consider the following hypothetical multiple alignment of sequences:
1: ATTG
2: ATTC
3: ATGG
4: GTTC
5: ATTG
Compute (using pen and paper) the BLOSUM90 scoring matrix. Use simple elimination if there
are sequences that are too similar.
Note that here we are using DNA. Normally, a Blosum ist made only for proteins. We do this to
keep the number of symbols small.
