The Clustal W and Clustal X multiple sequence alignment programs have been completely rewritten in C++. This will facilitate the further development of the alignment algorithms in the future and has allowed proper porting of the programs to the latest versions of Linux, Macintosh and Windows operating systems.
The programs can be run on-line from the EBI web server: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/tools/clustalw2. The source code and executables for Windows, Linux and Macintosh computers are available from the EBI ftp site ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/software/clustalw2/
Clustal W和Clustal X多序列比对程序已完全用C++重写。这将便于未来比对算法的进一步开发,并使程序能够适当地移植到最新版本的Linux、Macintosh和Windows操作系统。
这些程序可从EBI网络服务器在线运行:http://www.ebi.ac.uk/tools/clustalw2。Windows、Linux和Macintosh计算机的源代码和可执行文件可从EBI的ftp站点ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/software/clustalw2/获取。
