Exonerate: a generic tool for sequence alignment
Exonerate is a generic tool for pairwise sequence comparison. It allows
you to align sequences using a many alignment models, either exhaustive
dynamic programming or a variety of heuristics.
The Exonerate package comes with a selection of utilities for performing
simple manipulations quickly on fasta files beyond 2Gb.
Many of the algorithms in exonerate are described in:
