Selection on Alu sequences?
The draft of the human genome project reveals an unexpected distribution of Alu interspersed repetitive sequences [1]. This has been interpreted as evidence that Alu sequences 'may benefit their human hosts' [1] and that they 'have a positive function' [2]. The implication is that the majority of Alu sequences increase the Darwinian fitness of their bearers. Here I suggest that this conclusion ...
متن کاملanalysis of plasmodium vivax merozoite surface protein-1 gene sequences
the emergence of plasmodium vivax in dashte moghan in northwestern iran has become a major concern for iranian's health officials. knowledge of genetic make up of the p. vivax populations in this area would give us an insight into the origin of the prevalent infections and the possible routes they are introduced. this paper reports the analysis of a variable region between the two interspecies ...
متن کاملDetection of Alu Sequences in DNA: A Neural Network Approach
In this paper, we propose a neural network based method combined with our pattern matching technique to detect Alu sequences. We compare the performance of our method with the performance of BLAST. The results demonstrate that our method outperforms BLAST on the test data.
متن کاملSources and evolution of human Alu repeated sequences.
Alu repeated sequences arising in DNA of the human lineage during about the last 30 million years are closely similar to a modern consensus. Alu repeats arising at earlier times share correlated blocks of differences from the current consensus at diagnostic positions in the sequence. Using these 26 positions, we can recognize four subfamilies and the older ones are each successively closer to t...
متن کاملComparative In silico Study of Sex-Determining Region Y (SRY) Protein Sequences Involved in Sex-Determining
Background: The SRY gene (SRY) provides instructions for making a transcription factor called the sex-determining region Y protein. The sex-determining region Y protein causes a fetus to develop as a male. In this study, SRY of 15 spices included of human, chimpanzee, dog, pig, rat, cattle, buffalo, goat, sheep, horse, zebra, frog, urial, dolphin and killer whale were used for determine of bioi...
