PROGRAM:

NAME


clustalw - Multiple alignment of nucleic acid and protein sequences

SYNOPSIS


clustalw [-infile] file.ext [OPTIONS]

clustalw [-help | -fullhelp]

DESCRIPTION


Clustal W is a general purpose multiple alignment program for DNA or proteins.

The program performs simultaneous alignment of many nucleotide or amino acid sequences. It
is typically run interactively, providing a menu and an online help. If you prefer to use
it in command-line (batch) mode, you will have to give several options, the minimum being
-infile.

OPTIONS


DATA (sequences)
-infile=file.ext
Input sequences.

-profile1=file.ext and -profile2=file.ext
Profiles (old alignment)

VERBS (do things)
-options
List the command line parameters.

-help or -check
Outline the command line params.

-fullhelp
Output full help content.

-align
Do full multiple alignment.

-tree
