What is Jalview?
Jalview is a multiple alignment editor written in Java. It is used widely in a variety of
web pages (e.g. the EBI Clustalw server and the Pfam protein
domain database) but is available as a general purpose
alignment editor.
Jalview development has been funded for
three years from 1st October 2004 by the BBSRC as part
of the "VAMSAS"
Project. This project is coordinated by Geoff Barton at the
University of Dundee with partners at EBI and BioSS and
consultancy (blessing :-) from Michele Clamp; the originator
of Jalview.
