MUSCLE v5 MSA Generation

Rapidly generate high-quality multiple sequence alignments for protein sequences.

MUSCLE v5 MSA Generation media

MUSCLE v5 is a novel multiple sequence alignment algorithm that generates an ensemble of high-accuracy MSAs with diverse biases. It achieves this by perturbing a hidden Markov model (HMM) and permuting the guide tree used in the progressive alignment.

Key Capabilities

  • Generates high-quality multiple sequence alignments for biological sequences, with demonstrated accuracy improvements over popular tools like Clustal-Omega and MAFFT.
  • Constructs an ensemble of MSA replicates by introducing controlled variations in the HMM parameters and guide tree, enabling assessment of alignment uncertainty and bias.
  • Designed to scale to alignments of tens of thousands of sequences using a divide-and-conquer strategy.
