Whether common ancestors of eukaryotes and prokaryotes had introns is one of the oldest unanswered questions in molecular evolution. Recently completed genome sequences have been u...
Abstract. DNA copy number is the number of replicates of a contiguous segment of DNA on the genome. Copy number alteration (CNA) is a genetic abnormality in which the number of the...
Background: In biological sequence analysis, position specific scoring matrices (PSSMs) are widely used to represent sequence motifs in nucleotide as well as amino acid sequences....
