+# msa: An R Package for Multiple Sequence Alignment |
|
| 2 |
+The 'msa' package provides a unified R/Bioconductor interface to |
|
| 3 |
+the multiple sequence alignment algorithms ClustalW, ClustalOmega, |
|
| 4 |
+and Muscle. All three algorithms are integrated in the package, |
|
| 5 |
+therefore, they do not depend on any external software tools |
|
| 6 |
+and are available for all major platforms. The multiple sequence |
|
| 7 |
+alignment algorithms are complemented by a function for |
|
| 8 |
+pretty-printing multiple sequence alignments using the LaTeX |
|
| 9 |
+package TeXshade. |
|

+This is the source code repository. The package can be installed from |
|
| 12 |
+[Bioconductor](https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/msa.html). |
|
| 13 |
+Further information and installation instructions are also available from |
|
| 14 |
+http://www.bioinf.jku.at/software/msa/. |

+Although the package is maintained by Ulrich Bodenhofer, the package itself |
|
| 17 |
+has been implemented mainly by Enrico Bonatesta and Christoph Kainrath-Horejs. |
