MSS: Whole Genome Alignment using a
Mutation Sensitive Approach

MSS is a software that, given the genomes of two related species, locates regions that probably contain genes and other regulatory elements that are conserved over the two species.

• The theory behind the software is given in this paper, whose preliminary version appeared in the 4th IEEE International Symposium on BioInformatics and BioEngineering (BIBE), 2004, pages 545-552.

• The detailed experimental results of the software are given in the Experimental Results page.
