Multiple alignment
Anders Gorm Pedersen (gorm@cbs.dtu.dk)
Exercise
Perform a multiple alignment of protein sequences
from HIV using the program ClustalX. The multiple alignment will later be
used in a phylogenetic analysis of different immuno-deficiency viruses.
Transparencies
Below is a list of all transparencies used for the lecture on multiple alignment. All files are in PDF format.
NOTE: PDF files are a bit large but hopefully they will print with few
problems.
