<li><strong>Neighbour Joining Using Blosum62<br>
</strong></li>
</ul>
+ <strong>Note: Since Version 2.8.1, a number of additional similarity measures for tree calculation are provided in this menu.</strong>
</li>
<li><strong>Pairwise Alignments</strong><br> <em>Applies
Smith and Waterman algorithm to selected sequences. See <a
href="../calculations/pairwise.html">pairwise alignments</a>.</em><br>
</li>
<li><strong>Principal Component Analysis</strong><br> <em>Shows
- a spatial clustering of the sequences based on the BLOSUM62 scores
- in the alignment. See <a href="../calculations/pca.html">Principal
+ a spatial clustering of the sequences based on similarity scores calculated with
+ the alignment. See <a href="../calculations/pca.html">Principal
Component Analysis</a>.</em> <br>
</li>
<li><strong>Extract Scores ... (optional)</strong><br> <em>This
<li><strong>Sort With New Tree</strong><br> <em>When
enabled, Jalview will automatically sort the alignment when a new
tree is calculated or loaded onto it.</em> <br></li>
- </ul></li>
+ <li><strong>Show Flanking Regions</strong><br> <em>Opens
+ a new alignment window showing any additional sequence data either
+ side of the current alignment. Useful in conjunction with 'Fetch
+ Database References' when the 'Trim Retrieved Sequences' option is
+ disabled to retrieve full length sequences for a set of aligned
+ peptides. </em></li>
+ </ul></li>
<li><strong>Web Service Menu</strong><br /> <em>This menu
is dynamic, and may contain user-defined web service entries in
addition to any of the following ones:</em>
<ul>
<li><strong>Fetch DB References</strong><br> <em>This
- will use any of the database services that Jalview is aware of
- (e.g. DAS sequence servers and the WSDBFetch service provided by
- the EBI) to verify the sequence and retrieve all database cross
- references and PDB ids associated with all or just the selected
- sequences in the alignment. <br />'Standard Databases' will check
- sequences against the EBI databases plus any active DAS sequence
- sources, or you can verify against a specific source from one of
- the sub-menus.</em><br></li>
+ submenu contains options for accessing any of the database services
+ that Jalview is aware of (e.g. DAS sequence servers and the
+ WSDBFetch service provided by the EBI) to verify sequence start/end
+ positions and retrieve all database cross references and PDB ids
+ associated with all or just the selected sequences in the alignment.
+ <ul>
+ <li>'Trim Retrieved Sequences' - when checked, Jalview will
+ discard any additional sequence data for accessions associated with
+ sequences in the alignment. <br> <strong>Note: Disabling this
+ could cause out of memory errors when working with genomic
+ sequence records !</strong><br> <strong>Added in Jalview 2.8.1</strong>
+ </li>
+ <li>'Standard Databases' will check sequences against the EBI
+ databases plus any active DAS sequence sources<</li>
+ </ul> Other sub-menus allow you to pick a specific source to query -
+ sources are listed alphabetically according to their nickname.
+ </em><br></li>
</ul>
<p>Selecting items from the following submenus will start a
remote service on compute facilities at the University of Dundee, or
