An Experimental Evaluation of Inversion-and Transposition-Based Genomic Distances through Simulations
— 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...

A topological transformation in evolutionary tree search methods based on maximum likelihood combining p-ECR and neighbor joinin
Background: Inference of evolutionary trees using the maximum likelihood principle is NP-hard. Therefore, all practical methods rely on heuristics. The topological transformations...

Identification of putative regulatory upstream ORFs in the yeast genome using heuristics and evolutionary conservation
Background: The translational efficiency of an mRNA can be modulated by upstream open reading frames (uORFs) present in certain genes. A uORF can attenuate translation of the main...
