So you want to be able to take 5 alignments to a single profile HMM and produce a full alignment? I would use GappedSymbolList or GappedSequence to manage inserting gaps. Then, start with one of the alignments, take another, insert gaps so that their state-paths match up, then take the next, and so on. These profiles don't have loops, right?
