MAFFT
In bioinformatics, MAFFT (multiple alignment using fast Fourier transform) is a program used to create multiple sequence alignments of amino acid or nucleotide sequences. Published in 2002, the first version used an algorithm based on multiple sequence alignment#Progressive alignment construction, progressive alignment, in which the sequences were clustered with the help of the fast Fourier transform. Subsequent versions of MAFFT have added other algorithms and modes of operation, including options for faster alignment of large numbers of sequences, higher accuracy alignments, alignment of non-coding RNA sequences, and the addition of new sequences to existing alignments. History There have been many variations of the MAFFT software, some of which are listed below: * ''MAFFT'' – The first version, created by Kazutaka Katoh in 2002, used an algorithm based on multiple sequence alignment#Progressive alignment construction, progressive alignment, in which the sequences were cluste ...
