Aligning with MUSCLE

Task Name: align

Performs multiple sequence alignment with the MUSCLE algorithm and saves the resulting alignment to a file. Source data can be of any format containing sequences or alignments.

Parameters:

ParameterDescriptionDefault ValueType
inInput alignment [Url datasets]
max-iterationsMaximum number of iterations (using ‘2’ by default)2Number
modeSelector of preset configurations, that give you the choice of optimizing accuracy, speed, or some compromise between the two. The default favors accuracy (using ‘MUSCLE default’ by default)MUSCLE defaultString
rangeWhole alignment or column range, e.g., 1..100 (using ‘Whole alignment’ by default)Whole alignmentString
stableDo not rearrange aligned sequences (using ‘True’ by default)TrueBoolean
formatDocument format of output alignment (using ‘clustal’ by default)clustalString
outOutput alignment [String]

Example:

ugene align --in=test.aln --out=test_out.aln --format=clustal
