MUSCLE is a program for creating multiple alignments of amino acid or nucleotide sequences. A range of options is provided that give you the choice of optimizing accuracy, speed, or some compromise between the two. Default parameters are those that gave the best average benchmark accuracy in my tests. However, benchmark accuracy is a rather dubious measure; see: Edgar, R.C. (2010) Quality measures for protein alignment benchmarks, Nucleic Acids Res., 2010, 1–9. Template:App Location

Available versions

  • 3.8.31

Running the application using modules

To use muscle with the environment modules system at HPC the following commands are available:

Get module information for muscle:

$module spider muscle

Load the default application module:

$module load muscle

The modulefile for this software adds the directory with executable files to the shell execution PATH and sets the following environment variables:

  • HPC_MUSCLE_DIR - directory where muscle is located.
