MISHIMA
Method for Inferring Sequence History In Terms of Multiple Alignment
Introduction
MISHIMA is a program for multiple DNA sequence alignment. It takes input in FASTA format and outputs the alignment in MISHIMA or CLUSTALW format.
The idea of this program is to use heuristic to quickly find similarities shared by multiple sequences. Those similarities are then used to split the input sequences into fragments which are aligned separately. After that the partial alignments are assembled back together for complete alignment.
Stable MISHIMA version 2.0.6 can be used online at our Alignment server. Windows binary is also available for download.
Experimental development version of MISHIMA can be tried here.
