  TM-align is a computer algorithm for protein structure alignment using dynamic
  programming and TM-score rotation matrix. An optimal alignment between two
  proteins, as well as the TM-score, will be reported for each comparison. The
  value of TM-score lies in (0,1]. In general, a comparison of TM-score smaller
  0.2 indicates that there is no similarity between two structures; a TM-score
  greater 0.5 means the structures share the same fold.

  What is the difference between TM-score and TM-align? The TM-score program
  is to compare two models based on their given and known residue equivalency.
  It is usually NOT applied to compare two proteins of different sequences. The
  TM-align is a structural alignment program for comparing two proteins whose
  sequences can be different. The TM-align will first find the best equivalent
  residues of two proteins based on the structure similarity and then output a
  TM-score. The TM-score values in both programs have the same definition.
