This calculation creates a spatial representation of the similarities within a selected group, or all of the sequences in an alignment. After the calculation finishes, a 3D viewer displays the set of sequences as points in 'similarity space', and similar sequences tend to lie near each other in the space.
- Caveats
The calculation is computationally expensive,
- and may fail for very large sets of sequences - usually because the
- JVM has run out of memory. A future release of Jalview will be able
- to avoid this by executing the calculation via a web service.

Calculating PCAs for aligned sequences
Jalview can

- PCA Calculation modes
The default Jalview

- direction, and the lower diagonal is the sum of scores for mutating
