Nucleotide sequences?

Opened this issue · 2 comments

The new version of CUDASW 4.0 claims to support only protein chains.
What needs to be done to be able to search in the nucleotide database?

I would be really glad if there was a nucleotide substitution matrix ! From what I see in files options and types there are only BLOSUM. Would it be possible to add some DNA substitution models ?

I have implemented this idea in my fork. I have added DNA and NUC4.4 matrices and new parameter -type for makedb and align programs.
