<p align="justify">This server aligns two or more sequences by fixing sequentially conserved region or motifs within
the aligned sequences.
By fixing conserved regions this method allows flexibility and accuracy to the alignment.
It also provides conserved regions for a set of sequences which can be used for FMALIGN.</p><p align="justify">FMALIGN SERVER URL : <a href="http://www.ncbs.res.in/~faculty/mini/FMALIGN/home.html">http://www.ncbs.res.in/~faculty/mini/FMALIGN/home.html

I've been thinking about stuff like this from the immune's system point of view.<br>Consider something like clustering software since with that many<br>sequences they probably can be lumped into clusters. It occured to me you could
<br>take each sequence, break it up (generate "words" (peptides) using your favorite epitope<br> prediction code ), and cluster the sequences based on "vocabulary".<br>This may tell you which groups of proteins look similar to the immune system.
<br><br>btw, has anyone used tools or features like the "signatures" mentioned here?<br><a href="http://www.bioinf.man.ac.uk/dbbrowser/PRINTS/printscontents.html#Receptors">http://www.bioinf.man.ac.uk/dbbrowser/PRINTS/printscontents.html#Receptors
