Improvedcenterstar
Notice:
This is a program for multiple sequence alignment.
It runs faster than any other software if the sequences are similar.
It is developed with JAVA. So make sure JDK
1.6 or higher in your OS, please.
Download:
For windows user, improvedcenterstar.exe (166k)
For other user, improvedcenterstar.jar (17.3k)
Source code (82.8k)
Test data (24.7k)
Usage:
Write the sequences you want to align to a
FASTA file, and put it in the same folder with the program.
If you are in windows, go to dos in this
folder and run
improvedcenterstar test.txt 1
If you are in other OS, please run
java -jar improvedcenterstar.jar test.txt 1
Here 1 can be omitted or replaced by 0. If
you want to align the sequences with high similarity, please use
1(recommended); if the sequences are low similar, you can choose 0 to use
common center star method for multiple sequence alignment.
After that, the aligned sequences will be
saved in a new created file ‘output.txt’.
