Codon Alignment

Purpose: This tool takes nucleotide alignment and returns codon alignemnt and translates to protein sequences.

How to use: A nucleotide alignment is accepted. The program will automatically identify any standard format. The first sequence in the file will be taken as the master sequence and it should contain no frameshifts. You can select to codon-align the alignment starting in different frames or in all three frames.
