title: POAVIZ: a Partial order multiple sequence alignment visualizer.
abstract: CONCLUSIONS
  POAVIZ creates a visualization of a multiple sequence alignment that makes clear the overall structure of how sequences match and diverge in the alignment. POAVIZ can construct visualizations from any multiple sequence alignment source (e.g. PIR and CLUSTAL formats), and is valuable for revealing complex branching structure (such as domains, large-scale insertions / deletions or recombinations), especially in partnership with the Partial Order Alignment (POA) multiple sequence alignment program.
  
  
  BACKGROUND
  The Partial Order multiple sequence Alignment Visualizer (POAVIZ) program is available at http://www.bioinformatics.ucla.edu/poa
