What you can do: Align multiple DNA or protein sequences.
Highlights:
  • The program combines local and global alignment features and can therefore be applied to sequence data that cannot be correctly aligned by more traditional approaches.
  • DIALIGN is especially efficient where sequences are not globally related but share only local similarities, as is the case with genomic DNA and with many protein families.
  • For global multiple sequence alignment, CLUSTAL W, PRRP, and SAGA are generally better choices.
