DIAMOND
Sequence aligner for protein and translated DNA searches, a drop-in replacement for the NCBI BLAST
Key features are:
- Pairwise alignment of proteins and translated DNA at 100x-10,000x speed of BLAST.
- Frameshift alignments for long read analysis.
- Low resource requirements and suitable for running on standard desktops or laptops.
- Various output formats, including BLAST pairwise, tabular and XML, as well as taxonomic classification.
The module takes summary statistics from the diamond.log
file (--log
option). It parses and reports
the number of sequences aligned and displays them in the General Stats table.
