JAligner is a versatile tool primarily used for sequence alignment, a fundamental task in bioinformatics and computational biology. The idea behind the tool is to provide a flexible and memory-efficient solution for comparing biological sequences, aiding researchers and scientists in various fields, such as genomics, proteomics, and evolutionary biology, to make sense of complex sequence data. 

One of the main functions of the tool is the sequence alignment, a technique that is commonly used for comparing biological strings, such as DNA, RNA or protein chains, for example. Due to the way the chains can be arranged, the app can help you identify similarities and differences faster. 

It is worth mentioning that the tool includes a collection of around 70 scoring matrices, as present on the National Center for Biotechnology Information website. You can consider using reliable matrices for assigning scores to the matches and mismatches of the sequences during the alignment phase. All that without eating too much of your computer’s resources. 

Based on the findings, you can find out valuable data related to the sequences’ function, history and structural features. Considering the overall length of these chains, the tool can save you a lot of time and energy, especially when you are dealing with large datasets.
