Pairwise alignment (Proteins only)

+

This calculation is performed on the selected sequences only. Java is not the + fastest language in the world and aligning more than a handful of sequences + will take a fair amount of time.
+ For each pair of sequences the best global alignment is found using BLOSUM62 + as the scoring matrix. The scores reported are the raw scores. The sequences + are aligned using a dynamic programming technique and using the following gap + penalties :

+

Gap open : 12
+ Gap extend : 2

+

When you select the pairwise alignment option a new window will come up which + will display the alignments in a text format as they are calculated. Also displayed + is information about the alignment such as alignment score, length and percentage + identity between the sequences.
