MUMmer is a versatile alignment tool for DNA and protein sequences.
|
|
|
|
MUMmer is a system for rapidly aligning DNA and protein sequences. The
|
|
nucmer aligner in the current version (release 4.x) can align two
|
|
mammalian genomes in about 3 hours on a typical 32+ core workstation
|
|
with 64+Gb RAM; smaller genomes such as bacteria or small eukaryotes
|
|
are aligned in seconds or minutes. The promer utility generates
|
|
alignments based upon the six-frame translations of both input
|
|
sequences. promer permits the alignment of genomes for which the
|
|
proteins are similar but the DNA sequence is too divergent to detect
|
|
similarity. See the nucmer and promer readme files in the "docs/"
|
|
subdirectory for more details. MUMmer is open source, and we ask that
|
|
you cite our most recent paper in any publications that use this
|
|
system:
