MUSCLE 5: Next-generation MUSCLE
|
|
|
|
Muscle v5 is a major re-write of MUSCLE based on new algorithms.
|
|
|
|
* Highest accuracy, scalable to thousands of sequences:
|
|
Compared to previous versions, Muscle v5 is much more accurate, is often
|
|
faster, and scales to much larger datasets. At the time of writing (late
|
|
2021), Muscle v5 has the highest scores on multiple alignment benchmarks
|
|
including Balibase, Bralibase, Prefab and Balifam. It can align tens of
|
|
thousands of sequences with high accuracy on a low-cost commodity
|
|
computer (say, an 8-core Intel CPU with 32 Gb RAM). On large datasets,
|
|
Muscle v5 is 20-30% more accurate than MAFFT and Clustal-Omega.
|
|
|
|
* Alignment ensembles:
|
|
Muscle v5 can generate ensembles of high-accuracy alternative
|
|
alignments. All replicates have equal average accuracy on benchmark
|
|
test, including the MSA made with default parameters. By comparing
|
|
results of downstream analysis (trees, structure prediction...) on
|
|
different replicates, you can assess the effects of alignment errors on
|
|
your study.
