Satsuma2
:: DESCRIPTION
Satsuma is a whole-genome synteny alignment program. It takes two genomes, computes alignments, and then keeps only the parts that are orthologous, i.e. following the conserved order and orientation of features, such as protein coding genes, non-coding genes, or neutral sequences.
Satsuma2 is an optimised version of Satsuma, a tool to reliably align large and complex DNA sequences providing maximum sensitivity (to find all there is to find), specificity (to only find real homology) and speed (to accomodate the billions of base pairs in vertebrate genomes).
