MUSCLE is public domain multiple alignment software for protein and nucleotide sequences. MUSCLE stands for MUltiple Sequence Comparison by Log-Expectation.

Element type: muscle

Parameters

in GUI

ParameterDescriptionDefault valueParameter in Workflow FileType
ModeSelector of preset configurations, that give you the choice of optimizing accuracy, speed, or some compromise between the two. The default favors accuracy.MUSCLE defaultmode

numeric

Availables values are:

  • 0 - for MUSCLE default
  • 1 - for Large alignment
  • 2 - for Refine only
Stable orderDo not rearrange aligned sequences (-stable switch of MUSCLE). Otherwise, MUSCLE re-arranges sequences so that similar sequences are adjacent in the output file. This makes the alignment easier to evaluate by eye.True
