چکیده

SUMMARY ROBIN is a web server for analyzing genome rearrangement of block-interchanges between two chromosomal genomes. It takes two or more linear/circular chromosomes as its input, and computes the number of minimum block-interchange rearrangements between any two input chromosomes for transforming one chromosome into another and also determines an optimal scenario taking this number of rearrangements. The input can be either bacterial-size sequence data or landmark-order data. If the input is sequence data, ROBIN will automatically search for the identical landmarks that are the homologous/conserved regions shared by all the input sequences.

SPRING: a tool for the analysis of genome rearrangement using reversals and block-interchanges

SPRING (http://algorithm.cs.nthu.edu.tw/tools/SPRING/) is a tool for the analysis of genome rearrangement between two chromosomal genomes using reversals and/or block-interchanges. SPRING takes two or more chromosomes as its input and then computes a minimum series of reversals and/or block-interchanges between any two input chromosomes for transforming one chromosome into another. The input of...

An Efficient Algorithm for Sorting by Block-Interchanges and Its Application to the Evolution of Vibrio Species

In the study of genome rearrangement, the block-interchanges have been proposed recently as a new kind of global rearrangement events affecting a genome by swapping two nonintersecting segments of any length. The so-called block-interchange distance problem, which is equivalent to the sorting-by-block-interchange problem, is to find a minimum series of block-interchanges for transforming one ch...

An O(n3) algorithm for sorting signed genomes by reversals, transpositions, transreversals and block-interchanges

We consider the problem of sorting signed permutations by reversals, transpositions, transreversals, and block-interchanges. The problem arises in the study of species evolution via large-scale genome rearrangement operations. Recently, Hao et al. gave a 2-approximation scheme called genome sorting by bridges (GSB) for solving this problem. Their result extended and unified the results of (i) H...

Improving the Performance of a Genome Sorting Algorithm with Inverted Block-Interchange

A classic problem in comparative genomics is to find a shortest sequence of evolutionary operations that transform one genome into another. There are different types of genome rearrangement operators such as reversals, transpositions, translocations, block interchange, double cut and join (DCJ) etc. In this paper we consider reversals and block-interchanges simultaneously and incorporate invert...

The ABCs of MGR with DCJ

We study the small phylogeny problem in the space of multichromosomal genomes under the double cut and join metric. This is similar to the existing MGR (multiple genome rearrangements) approach but it allows, in addition to inversion and reciprocal translocation, operations of transposition and block interchange. Empirically, with chloroplast and mammalian data sets, it finds solutions as good ...
