CLUSTAL W Multiple Sequence Alignment Program
-ClustalW was written by Des Higgins (now at University College, Cork,
-Ireland) (des@chah.ucc.ie), Julie Thompson (julie@IGBMC.u-strasbg.fr),
-Toby Gibson, (Gibson@EMBL-Heidelberg.DE), and Franc'ois Jeanmougin
-(pingouin@igbmc.u-strasbg.fr). It is a complete rewrite and upgrade of
-the Clustal and ClustalV packages. which were developed by Des
-Higgins. New features include the ability to detect read different
-input formats (NBRF/PIR, Fasta, EMBL/Swissprot); align old alignments;
-produce phylogenetic trees after alignment (Neighbor Joining trees
-with a bootstrap option); write different alignment formats (Clustal,
-NBRF/PIR, GCG, PHYLIP); full command line interface. It is described
-in the following papers:
+Clustal W is a multiple alignment program for DNA or proteins.
+Clustal W was written by Des Higgins (des@chah.ucc.ie), Julie Thompson
+(julie@IGBMC.u-strasbg.fr), and Toby Gibson (Gibson@EMBL-Heidelberg.DE).
+Version 2.0 has been completely rewritten in C++.
