AMAP
AMAP is a multiple sequence alignment program based on sequence annealing.[1] This approach consists of building up the multiple alignment one match at a time, thereby circumventing many of the problems of progressive alignment. The AMAP parameters can be used to tune the sensivitiy-specificity tradeoff.
