Convert Xml Alignment To Aln Format

Hello,

Can anybody tell Is there any way or tool which takes sequence alignment file which is in xml format and convert it to .aln format.. which is easily readable

Thanks, Nitin

alignment

those suffixes are meaningless: show us the xml and the aln please.

yes what do you mean xml alignment format? I know that .aln usually refers to clustal alignments format.

At a guess you probably mean the Clustal alignment format for '.aln', which is handled by a wide range for alignment editors and reformatting tools, however for '.xml' you could be referring to any of a number of XML formats (for examples see http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/webservices/tutorials/aa_xml_formats). The XML formats generally are associated with specific applications, so it may be that they have some option to convert into Clustal format, or to another commonly used format (e.g. MSF, fasta or PHYLIP) which can be handled by commonly available tools.

closing because no longer relevant and insufficient information given.
