Everything about ProbCons
Protein multiple-sequence alignment program
In bioinformatics and proteomics, ProbCons is an open source software for probabilistic consistency-based multiple alignment of amino acid sequences. It is one of the most efficient protein multiple sequence alignment programs, since it has repeatedly demonstrated a statistically significant advantage in accuracy over similar tools, including Clustal and MAFFT.
