* In depth analysis

The first is a natural consequence of the fact that most computational representations of alignments and their annotation are not human readable and best portrayed in the familiar seuqence row and alignment column format, of which examples are widespread in the literature. The second is a necessity because [[Multiple sequence alignment]] algorithms typically utilise heuristics which do not always perform perfectly. The third is a great example of how interactive graphical tools enable a worker involved in sequence analysis to conveniently execute a variety if different computational tools in order to explore an alignment's phylogenetic implications; or, to predict the structure and functional properties of a specific sequence (e.g. comparative modelling).
