Basically, the whole algorthm is independent of sequence type if a proper pairwise alignment algorithm and score is used. Therefore, it should be possible to run the same algorithm with protein sequences. I expect it to be somewhat slower than for nucleotide sequences because we cannot use the ultra-fast edit-score alignment algorithm in SeqAn.

Reason for this: users are requesting the functionality with protein level aligners such as BlastX.

We have a working implementation which needs some testing, still. Stay tuned.

the protein space alignment algorithm has been fully implemented and will be contained in release 1.5
