Supersequences of Masks for Oligo-chips

نویسنده

چکیده

On a very small surface, a chip, several thousands of oligonucleotides, can be synthesized using a mask technology. Given a set of oligos, the problems tackled here are: What is the minimum number of masks necessary to synthesize one copy of each oligo? How long will be the series of masks if each oligo is synthesized twice, such that the two copies are realized with two completely different series of masks? We establish that, for 20,000 oligos of 20 bases a single copy can be synthesized with around 67 masks and for two copies with less than the double.

About the design of oligo-chips

On a very small surface, a chip, several thousands of oligonucleotides, having a length between 20 and 25 bases, can be synthesized. The actual technology to manufacture in parallel these high density oligo-chips is photolithography using masks to select the oligos on which one base, among A, T, G or C, must be added. The problems tackled here deal with the possibility, with a unique series of ...

From Clustering Supersequences to Entropy Minimizing Subsequences for Single and Double Deletions

A binary string transmitted via a memoryless i.i.d. deletion channel is received as a subsequence of the original input. From this, one obtains a posterior distribution on the channel input, corresponding to a set of candidate supersequences weighted by the number of times the received subsequence can be embedded in them. In a previous work it is conjectured on the basis of experimental data th...

Is the use of a mask useful in the prevention of covid-19 disease? An Evidence review study

Background and aims: Coronaviruses are important pathogens in humans and animals. In late 2019, a new coronavirus was identified as the cause of a group of pneumonia cases in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The disease spread rapidly, resulting in epidemics in China and reports of sporadic cases worldwide. In February 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) identified COVID-19, which stands for...
