Abstract
An improved mutation operator in genetic algorithm for solving multiple sequence alignment problems is proposed. In this step, the UPGMA method is used to generate the guide tree where two different matrices such as edit distance or dynamic distance have been used. The performance of the proposed method has been tested on Bali base with some of the existing methods such as, HMMT, DIALIGN, ML–PIMA, and PILEUP8. It has been observed that the proposed method perform better in most of the cases.
