Abstract
Enzymes are important in our life due to its importance in the most biological processes. Thus, classification of the enzyme’s function is vital to save efforts and time in the labs. In this paper, we propose an approach based on sequence alignment to compute the similarity between any two sequences. In the proposed approach, two different sequence alignment methods are used, namely, local and global sequence alignment. There are different score matrices such as BLOSUM and PAM are used in the local and global alignment to calculate the similarity between the unknown sequence and each sequence of the training sequences. The results which obtained were acceptable to some extent compared to previous studies that have surveyed.
