It is a process of aligning base pairs in one sequence with those of the other sequence often to look for similarities between the two. DNA base pair alignment is useful for determining if two proteins are related by evolution. Since DNA is likely to mutate more than amino acid residues in a protein, this method is more appropriate for comparisons between closely related species.
