pwalign

Perform pairwise sequence alignments

Bioconductor version: Release (3.20)

The two main functions in the package are pairwiseAlignment() and stringDist(). The former solves (Needleman-Wunsch) global alignment, (Smith-Waterman) local alignment, and (ends-free) overlap alignment problems. The latter computes the Levenshtein edit distance or pairwise alignment score matrix for a set of strings.
