Abstract

Multiple sequence alignment is a prerequisite for many evolutionary analyses. Multiple Alignment of Coding Sequences (MACSE) is a multiple sequence alignment program that explicitly accounts for the underlying codon structure of protein-coding nucleotide sequences. Its unique characteristic allows b...
