This is the development version of MultipleAlignment; to use it, please install the devel version of Bioconductor.

Representation of multiple sequence alignments in Bioconductor


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

The package implements a set of S4 classes (DNAMultipleAlignment, RNAMultipleAlignment, AAMultipleAlignment) for representing Multiple Sequence Alignments (MSA). The classes allow users to represent groups of aligned DNA, RNA or amino acid sequences as a single object. The package also provides functions to read/write such object from/to traditional MSA file formats including Stockholm and Clustal.
