Gene and Protein Sequence Alignment, Phylogenetic Search and Analysis (25 entries)

Some software (e.g. CLUSTAL W, GCG) in this section is specific for doing the sequence alignment of proteins and DNA. Others(e.g. GCG, PHYLIP) are for searching for the evolutionary relationship between of gene (or protein) sequence from an organism and that from other organisms. Few such as "ConSurf" is for analysis of Functional Regions in Proteins using Phylogenetic Information.
