Uclust
UCLUST is a high-performance clustering, alignment and search algorithm that is capable of handling millions of sequences.
Applications include:
- Generating non-redundant protein and nucleotide sequence databases.
- OTU-picking by clustering 16S/18S rRNA sequences.
- Clustering reads from meta-genomic and environmental sequencing studies.
- Taxonomy assignment of sequences to curated databases such as
Greengenes
,
RDP
and
SILVA
.
- Phylogenetic analysis of very large sequence sets.
