USalign Structural Alignment

Efficiently produce accurate 3D structural alignments across diverse macromolecular forms and configurations

USalign Structural Alignment media

US-align is a unified tool for comparing 3D structures of proteins, RNAs, and DNAs across various configurations (monomers, oligomers, and heterocomplexes) for pairwise and multiple alignments. It builds on TM-align, optimizing structural alignment through heuristic dynamic programming to maximize TM-score. Benchmark tests show that US-align achieves high accuracy with reduced CPU time compared to specialized alignment methods.
