Description SUPERMATCHER application details page

Finds a match of a large sequence against one or more sequences

This is a rough and ready local alignment program for large sequences. The reason it is rough and ready is that wordmatch is used to find all the word matches between the first sequence and another sequence. Then by calculating the highest score for a diagonal we can then use this as the centre point for a Smith-Waterman type calculation of a width given by the user. So a narrow diagonal Smith-Waterman is calculated hence the results will be rough but due to the space saving much larger sequences can be aligned.

Literature None.
