Gene Cluster Statistics with Gene Families
Identifying genomic regions that descended from a common ancestor is important for understanding the function and evolution of genomes. In distantly related genomes, clusters of homologous gene pairs are evidence of candidate homologous regions. Demonstrating the statistical significance of such "gene clusters" is an essential component of comparative genomic analyses. However, currently there ...

متن کاملIndividual Gene Cluster Statistics in Noisy Maps
Identification of homologous chromosomal regions is important for understanding evolutionary processes that shape genome evolution, such as genome rearrangements and large scale duplication events. If these chromosomal regions have diverged significantly, statistical tests to determine whether observed similarities in gene content are due to history or chance are imperative. Currently available...
متن کاملGenome rearrangement with gene families
MOTIVATION The theory and practice of genome rearrangement analysis breaks down in the biologically widespread contexts where each gene may be present in a number of copies, not necessarily contiguous. In some of these contexts it is, however, appropriate to ask which members of each gene family in two genomes G and H, lengths lG and lH, are its true exemplars, i.e. which best reflect the origi...
متن کاملMutation analysis of connexin 50 gene among Iranian families with autosomal dominant cataracts
Objective(s): Childhood cataract is a genetically heterogeneous eye disorder that results in visual impairment. The aim of this study was to identify the genetic mutations of connexin 50 gene among Iranian families suffered from autosomal dominant congenital cataracts (ADCC). Materials and Methods: Families, having at least two members with bilateral familial congenital cataract, were selected ...
