Description

Empirically derived exchangability matrix for general proteins.

This command only refers to the symmetric part of the WAG model, not the frequencies. Frequencies are added by using the +> F command. Frequencies are estimated by default but can be fixed to the values estimated in the paper using +> F(WAG_freq).

Examples

WAG +> F
WAG +> F(WAG_freq)
