Two strategies for multiple sequence alignment. (A) Star alignment strategy performs multiple sequence alignment based on the consistencies among pairwise alignments of the sequences pending alignment and a center sequence, which is in light blue. (B) Progressive alignment strategy performs multiple sequence alignment along a pre-built guide tree, each of whose internal nodes represents an alignment of two sequences, one sequence with one profile, or two profiles.
