Quickest way to get alignment data for gbrowse_syn

Hello

I'm thinking of creating a test gbrowse_syn installation for a reasonably large metazoan chromosome (and it's orthologue of course).  This is about 95Mb in length.

So, what's the quickest way to generate an alignment table?

I'm pretty sure I'll have to use something really quick, MUMMer perhaps?  Or NCBI megablast?

I'd then have to parse the data into something that looks like the alignment table.  Most of that table I have figured out, except the "bin" column - what is that?

Does anyone have any experiences to share?

Thanks
Mick

Hi Mick, and everyone else,

This response is more of a non-response, but I'm hoping it will
generate some responses with some actual content.

I don't know of a particularly easy way to generate alignment data for
GBrowse_syn.  I don't think Sheldon McKay, the developer of
GBrowse_syn, makes any particular recommendation (see
http://gmod.org/wiki/GBrowse_syn_Tutorial#Whole_Genome_Alignments).

Can anyone out there provide Mick with a recommendation?

Thanks,

Dave C.

Hi Dave

Thought I had been forgotten.  I am currently running megablast (NCBI) after MUMmer ran out of memory.  

What I really need is an explanation of what the columns mean in the alignment table(s), including the "bin" column.

Thanks
Mick
