Hi:
I used to use Geneworks on Macintosh. Unfortunately it takes time to
complete the alignment and requires lots of memory if you try aligning
long stretches of DNA,RNA or prtoteins. A Power Macintosh is highly
recommended.
I now routinely use PileUp in GCG (in a Unix machine), as it is fast and
good.
Sometimes I use the netsite, http://www.ibc.wustl.edu/msa.html , to
perform small alignments. It probably uses an alogorithm similar to
Clustalw.
To get neat publishable quality outputs of my alignment, I use the
netsite, http://ulrec3.unil.ch/software/BOX_form.html .
Disclaimer: I have no gain, monetary or otherwise, with any of the
products that I have mentioned above. Just a user.
Hope this helps.
Warm regards,
sathish
