TALEs are held in S3 classes that record each one as a series of parts (N-terminus, repeats with their repeat-variable diresidues (RVDs), C-terminus), with methods to validate, subset, combine and plot them. TALEs are aligned repeat by repeat, compared with R implementations of the 'DisTAL' and 'FuncTAL' distances , and grouped into families by hierarchical clustering or k-medoids. Wrappers for 'AnnoTALE' , 'TALEcorrection' , 'TALVEZ' and 'PrediTALE' read their results into the same objects; the last two predict target sites in host genomes.
