Importance of Multiple Sequence Alignment

Importance of Multiple Sequence Alignment

0

I am planning to work on designing “hardware accelerator for Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) tool, MAFFT”. I decided to select MAFFT algorithms as my research target because I found in publications that some of the MAFFT algorithms are more accurate compared to other solutions for MSA but their adoption in Industry and Academia has been limited due to high time-consumption. Since I belong to technology domain and not to the bioinformatics, I would like to know whether my targets are worth hardware acceleration effort from Bioinformaticians’ point of view for Industry/ Research. Please provide some important reasons for your suggestions.
