Phrap is a software tool used for assembling DNA sequences, particularly in the context of sequence analysis and genomics. It is part of the CAP3 assembly program, which is commonly used for assembling DNA sequences derived from high-throughput sequencing technologies. Phrap employs algorithms that utilize information from overlapping DNA sequences to construct longer contiguous sequences, known as contigs. The tool can manage sequences from various sources, including those generated by Sanger sequencing.
