Delete residues and gaps
Residues or gaps can be deleted for individual sequences or for the
whole alignment. For individual sequences:
select the part of the sequence you want to delete |
right-click the selection | Edit
Selection (
) | Delete the text in the
dialog | Replace
The selection shown in the dialog will be replaced by the text you enter. If you delete the text, the selection will be replaced by an empty text, i.e. deleted.
To delete entire columns:
select the part of the alignment you want to delete | right-click the selection | Delete columns
The selection may cover one or more sequences, but the Delete columns function will always apply to the entire alignment.
