Extra Multiple Sequence Alignment

Try to perform a small MSA

Multiple sequence alignment ( more here and here) leads to the identification of the homologous regions in a set of sequences, and to the "edit paths" from one sequence to another.

A common output format is "FASTA with gaps":

>seq1
--CAGTCGATCGGTAGCAGCTGACGTAGCAG--GAAGCT
>seq2
GGCAGTCGATC-GTAGCAGCTGACGTAGCAG--GAAGCT
>seq3
--CAGTCGATCGGTAGCAGCTGACGTAGCAG--CTAGC-
