alpha-CENTAURI 0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

alpha-CENTAURI is a Pyhton package for mining alpha satellites and their higher-order structures in sequence data. It requires an initial consensus sequence (a sample is provided in the package). This consensus sequence is used to build an HMM model, which is employed to detect alpha-satellite monomers in the sequence data.
