SnapGene version 5.3 and later allow display of features in multiple sequence alignments.
SnapGene 6.0 and later allow editing of features in multiple alignments. See View or Edit Features in a Multiple Alignment.
Create a Multiple Alignment with Annotated Sequences
Prepare your annotated sequences for alignment, in this example the sequences are stored in a Collection.
Select the sequences for alignment, and click Align Selected Sequences....
Choose one or more Alignment algorithms to use and enter a name for the new alignment. Click Align to run the Aligner/s and create the new alignment/s.
View the Alignment
View the new alignment. By default features will not be displayed.
Click the disclosure triangle associated with a sequence to view the associated feature, including translation for CDS features.
Option-click (macOS) or ALT-click (Windows and Linux) on a disclosure triangle to expand and show the features for all sequences in the alignment.
