Large scale features in DNA genomic signals
نویسنده
چکیده
Complex representations of the nucleotides, codons and amino acids derived from the projection of the Genetic Code Tetrahedron on adequately oriented planes are presented. By converting the sequences of nucleotides and polypeptides into digital genomic signals, this approach o2ers the possibility of using signal processing methods for the analysis of genomic information. New tools for genomic signal analysis are introduced at the nucleotide, codon and amino acid levels, in a multiresolution approach. It is shown that some important features of nucleotide sequences can be revealed using these signal representations. The paper reports the existence of large scale and global trends of DNA genomic signals in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, re6ecting an almost constant second order nucleotide statistics along DNA strands even at the points where the 7rst order nucleotide statistics show marked changes, as it is the case in prokaryotes. ? 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Identification of Human Chromosome Segments that Have High Homology with Rat Genomic DNA
This study was conducted to determine the location of DNA segment with homology to the rat conserved genomic DNA in human chromosomes. The labeled rat genomic DNA was hybridized with normal human (male) metaphases. The study of 74 metaphases after fluorescence in situ hybridization showed 371 twin-spot signals on human chromosomes. Statistical analysis indicated that the specific accumulation o...

Complex representation of nucleotides is used to convert DNA sequences into complex digital genomic signals. The analysis of the cumulated phase and unwrapped phase of DNA genomic signals reveals large-scale features of eukaryote and prokaryote chromosomes that result from statistical regularities of base and base-pair distributions along DNA strands. By reorienting the chromosome coding region...

متن کاملSequence Information Encoded in DNA that May Influence Long-Range Chromatin Structure Correlates with Human Chromosome Functions
Little is known about the possible function of the bulk of the human genome. We have recently shown that long-range regular oscillation in the motif non-T, A/T, G (VWG) existing at ten-nucleotide multiples influences large-scale nucleosome array formation. In this work, we have determined the locations of all 100 kb regions that are predicted to form distinctive chromatin structures throughout ...
