What
output formats does ClustalW produce?
There are a number of options provided as output for the
user:
aln with numbers (default), aln without numbers, gcg
MSF, phylip, pir and gde.
The user can specify
which of these they want on the web form in the OUTPUT section. There is also
an option to specify the order that the sequences appear in the alignment:
aligned (default) or in the order in which they were input. The alignment will
appear on the results page along with details of scores and guide trees. The
alignment can be obtained on its own by clicking on the alignment file option
at the top (.aln). This file can be opened in a separate window and/or saved to
a file.
