EST sequences constitute an abundant, yet error prone resource for computational biology. Expressed sequences are important in gene discovery and identification, and they are also crucial for the discovery and classification of alternative splicing. An important challenge when processing EST sequences is the reconstruction of mRNA by assembling EST clusters into consensus sequences.
