The XML schema for the novel format is available here. A description of the HSAML format and examples how to manipulate HSAML-formatted data using other software can be found here. An alignment generated with PRANK contains more information than can be stored using the traditional sequence alignment formats. You can make models here.
This will generate a model that can be saved locally and used for the alignment. One can modify some of the basic parameters or leave them with their default values and press the button in the bottom of the form. PRANK is not meant for the alignment of DNA sequence are provided. The reconstruction of evolutionary homology — including the correct placement of insertion and deletion events — is only feasible for rather closely-related sequences. To understand why things may go wrong and how to avoid that, read this explanation of differences between PRANK and traditional progressive alignment methods. There are, however, cases where the different look is caused by violations of the method’s assumptions. PRANK aims at an evolutionarily correct sequence alignment and often the result looks different from ones generated with other alignment methods. The novel format allows for storing all the information generated by the aligner and the alignment browser is a convenient way to analyse and manipulate the data.
In addition to providing a user-friendly interface to those not familiar with Unix systems, PRANKSTER is an alignment browser for alignments saved in the HSAML format. Lastly, PRANK allows for defining a potential structure for sequences to be aligned and then, simultaneously with the alignment, predicts the locations of structural units in the sequences.
