What is the best software (in terms of accuracy) to do multiple sequence alignment?

12 December 2013 1 3K Report

I am going to do a sequence alignment of a few dozen proteins to pinpoint the presence of a specific motif within these sequences. I am going to do it using using either GeneDoc, ClustalW, or SAGA, but I am not sure which software is better, if any.

Chhedi Lal Gupta

There are so many tools available for multiple sequence alignment following different algorithms. For your work you can use one of the best popular MSA tool CluctalW.
