* Package name : prank Version : 100802 Upstream Author : Ari Loytynoja * URL : http://www.ebi.ac.uk/goldman-srv/prank/src/prank/ * License : GPL2+ Programming Lang: C++ Description : Probabilistic Alignment Kit for biological sequences PRANK is a probabilistic multiple alignment program for DNA, codon and amino-acid sequences. It's based on a novel algorithm that treats insertions correctly and avoids over-estimation of the number of deletion events. . In addition, PRANK borrows ideas from maximum likelihood methods used in phylogenetics and correctly takes into account the evolutionary distances between sequences. Lastly, PRANK allows for defining a potential structure for sequences to be aligned and then, simultaneously with the alignment, predicts the locations of structural units in the sequences. The package was prepared during the Debian Med meeting in Travemünde and is mostly ready for uploading to the archive. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
