found: MeSH browser, Dec. 5, 2008(Sequence Alignment. The arrangement of two or more amino acid or base sequences from an organism or organisms in such a way as to align areas of the sequences sharing common properties. The degree of relatedness or homology between the sequences is predicted computationally or statistically based on weights assigned to the elements aligned between the sequences. This in turn can serve as a potential indicator of the genetic relatedness between the organisms. UF Determination, Sequence Homology; Sequence Homology Determination.

found: Wikipedia, Dec. 5, 2008(Sequence alignment. In bioinformatics, a sequence alignment is a way of arranging the primary sequences of DNA, RNA, or protein to identify regions of similarity that may be a consequence of functional, structural, or evolutionary relationships between the sequences)
