Multiple sequence alignment (MSA Editor). The Alignment Editor is a powerful tool for visualization and editing DNA, RNA or protein multiple sequence alignments. To activate the Alignment Editor open any alignment file. For example you can use the $ugene/data/samples/CLUSTALW/COI.aln file provided with UGENE. After opening the file in UGENE the Alignment Editor window appears:
