Hi yall,
I need to do pairwise sequence alignment of short alphanumeric strings,
and I turned to biopython to look for this tool. I was hoping to do it
natively and not need to repeatedly use a wrapper to ClustalW or something
like that. In scriptcentral, I found:
http://starship.python.net/crew/gherman/potpurri/align/
60% of the time, it works every time. However, it's not quite perfect,
and before I went diving into the heart of the alignment function, I
wanted to see if anyone knew of a better approach or alternate code. I've
googled extensively without luck.
Many thanks,
Joel
