MAFFT Resource Report Resource Website 10000+ mentions |
MAFFT (RRID:SCR_011811) | MAFFT | software application, data processing software, software toolkit, image analysis software, software resource, alignment software | Software package as multiple alignment program for amino acid or nucleotide sequences. Can align up to 500 sequences or maximum file size of 1 MB. First version of MAFFT used algorithm based on progressive alignment, in which sequences were clustered with help of Fast Fourier Transform. Subsequent versions have added other algorithms and modes of operation, including options for faster alignment of large numbers of sequences, higher accuracy alignments, alignment of non-coding RNA sequences, and addition of new sequences to existing alignments. | alignment, amino acid, nucleotide, sequence, DNA, sequence alignment, bio.tools |
