Open-source parallel alignment tool for protein-coding sequences and preprocessing for molecular evolution analysis.
ParaAT is a parallel alignment tool for protein-coding DNA sequences that generates codon alignments from protein alignments, commonly used as preprocessing for molecular evolution and selection pressure analysis.
Use cases: molecular evolution, sequence analysis, codon alignment, parallel analysis, Ka/Ks analysis preprocessing
Note: Best suited to users with bioinformatics and command-line experience; MEGA is more often used as free GUI software but should not simply be labelled open source.
