The double cut and join (DCJ) operation, introduced by Yancopoulos, Attie and Friedberg in 2005, allows one to represent most rearrangement events in genomes. However, a DCJ cannot...
Motivation: The double cut and join operation (abbreviated as DCJ) has been extensively used for genomic rearrangement. Although the DCJ distance between signed genomes with both ...
— Rearrangements of genes and other syntenic blocks have become a topic of intensive study by phylogenists, comparative genomicists, and computational biologists: they are a feat...
Background: The rapidly increasing availability of whole-genome sequences has enabled the study of whole-genome evolution. Evolutionary mechanisms based on genome rearrangements h...
