How do I plot clusters based on DNA sequence alignment?

Remove gaps from alignment?
If you want an ungapped alignment, you could do an ungapped alignment (the older read aligners were ungapped, e.g. bowtie). However, I suggest that you don't want an ungapped alignment, you just want ...

How to highlight the specific peptide sequences after performing multiple sequence alignment for the fasta file?
Checkout an MSA visualisation and analysis package that you can load the alignment into. It may not be the newest tool, but I've used Jalview (https://www.jalview.org/) in the past
