It allows +you to align sequences using a many alignment models, either exhaustive +dynamic programming or a variety of heuristics. + +The Exonerate package comes with a selection of utilities for performing +simple manipulations quickly on fasta files beyond 2Gb. + +Many of the algorithms in exonerate are described in: +Slater GS and Birney E (2005) Automated generation of heuristics for +biological sequence comparison.
