Summary description: Update of the DNA and protein sequence alignment LaTeX package TeXshade
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
This update finally corrects problems with displaying sequence alignments in landscape mode. New commands were introduced to select and define residue weight tables (PAM250, PAM100, BLOSUM62, etc.) for calculations of sequence conservation. Another set of commands allows you to print tables with percent identity and similarity data.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/texshade/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/texshade (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

texshade – Package for setting nucleotide and peptide alignments
TeXshade is alignment shading software completely written in TeX/LaTeX; it can process multiple sequence alignments in the .MSF and the .ALN file formats. In addition to common shading algorithms, it provides special shading modes showing functional aspects, e.g. charge or hydropathy, and a wide range of commands for handling shading colours, text styles, labels, legends; it even allows the user to define completely new shading modes. TeXshade combines highest flexibility with TeX output quality — all in a bundle that does not demand excessive development time of the user.
