The Isaac Aligneraligns DNA sequencing data, single or paired-end, with read lengths 32–150 bp and low error rates using the following steps:

Candidate mapping positions—Identifies the complete set of relevant candidate mapping positions using a 32-mer seed-based search.
Mapping selection—Selects the best mapping among all candidates.
Alignment score—Determines alignment scores for the selected candidates based on a Bayesian model.
Alignment output—Generates final output in a sorted duplicate-marked BAM file, and summary file.
