MUSCLE

https://img.shields.io/github/issues-pr/snakemake/snakemake-wrappers/bio/muscle?label=version%20update%20pull%20requests

build multiple sequence alignments using MUSCLE.

URL: https://drive5.com/muscle5/manual/

Example

This wrapper can be used in the following way:

rule muscle_fasta:
    input:
        fasta="{sample}.fa",  # Input fasta file
    output:
        alignment="{sample}.fas",  # Output alignment file
    log:
        "logs/muscle/{sample}.log",
    params:
        extra="-refineiters 50",  # Additional arguments
    threads: 2
    wrapper:
        "v5.0.0/bio/muscle"


rule muscle_super5:
    input:
        fasta="{sample}.fa",
    output:
        alignment="{sample}.super5.fas",
    log:
        "logs/muscle/{sample}.super5.log",
    params:
        super5 = True,
        extra="-refineiters 50",
    threads: 2
    wrapper:
        "v5.0.0/bio/muscle"

Note that input, output and log file paths can be chosen freely.

When running with

snakemake --use-conda

the software dependencies will be automatically deployed into an isolated environment before execution.

Software dependencies

  • muscle=5.1

Input/Output

Input:

  • FASTA file

Output:

  • Alignment file, with FASTA as default file format

Params

  • super5: specifies whether to use the Super5 algorithm to align sequences
