An implementation of the Jukes-Cantor algorithm for Homework Assignment 5 in MCS 5603.
python jukes_cantor.py input_file.fasta
To redirect output to a text file, instead type:
python jukes_cantor.py input_file.fasta -o output_file.txt
In either case, input_file.fasta
must contain pre-aligned FASTA sequences for analogous genes from different species.
The output will be in the form of a matrix of Jukes-Cantor scores.
To see all available options, use the -h
option.
