 Like in the alignment below A is in the same 'register'( bad English himm:)
with - but seq1 and seq2 have these information already
so when  I know seq1 and seq2 I don't need any further information to
visualize the alignment.
three feature is enough to define my alignment

AADALLL
- -  EVLLL
the alignment is there ( this is pairwise alignment of protein sequences
that can be calculated
by dynamic programming of two strings)

no not score some other quality related to origins of the sequences ( again
related to biology ).
so the alignments of certain sequence pairs should belong to one group and
the others another.so we
for the scope of problem believe me it is not important.

I meant the say number of groups.

hope I was clear.
