PAGAN Description

PAGAN is a general-purpose method for the alignment of sequence graphs. The main advantage of the graph representation of sequences is the graphs' ability to describe the uncertainty in the presence of characters at certain sequence positions. This is highly useful in phylogenetic progressive alignment and allows for capturing the different properties of insertions and deletions when alignments are iterated for multiple sequences. In addition, graphs allow describing the uncertainty in input sequences and modelling e.g. homoploymer errors in Roche 454 reads, or representing inferred ancestral sequences against which other sequences can then be aligned. Detailed instructions on how to install and use the PAGAN utility on your Mac are available HERE.
