Analysis of Sequence Conservation at Nucleotide Resolution
One of the major goals of comparative genomics is to understand the evolutionary history of each nucleotide in the human genome sequence, and the degree to which it is under selective pressure. Ascertainment of selective constraint at nucleotide resolution is particularly important for predicting the functional significance of human genetic variation and for analyzing the sequence substructure ...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence analysis of the Second Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS2) in Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum in Iran
Ticks are important acarina that infest animals. They are obligatory blood sucker arthropods which economically impact cattle industry by reducing weight gain and production. Moreover, they are important vectors of viral, bacterial, rickettsial and parasitic pathogens infecting humans and animals. In view of the importance of Hyalomma anatolicum anatolicum in pathogen transmission, including Th...
متن کاملNucleotide Sequence Analysis of S1 Gene among Iranian Avian Infectious Bronchitis Viruses Isolated during 2001-2002
Infectious bronchitis (IB) virus genome codes for four structural proteins, among which the S1 subunit of spike glycoprotein comprises the major epitopes to induce neutralizing antibodies. This study involved the comparison of the full S1 sequences of five IB viruses, namely two Massachusetts and three 793/B serotypes, isolated from IB outbreaks during 2001-2002, with all other Iranian an...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence conservation in paramyxoviruses; the concept of codon constellation.
The stability and conservation of the sequences of RNA viruses in the field and the high error rates measured in vitro are paradoxical. The field stability indicates that there are very strong selective constraints on sequence diversity. The nature of these constraints is discussed. Apart from constraints on variation in cis-acting RNA and the amino acid sequences of viral proteins, there are o...
متن کاملStructure-independent nucleotide sequence analysis.
Substitution of inosine for granosine in the nucleic acid fragments synthesized for the sequencing of RNA effectively prevents the formation of secondary structures during electrophoretic analysis. Consequently, the mobility of each fragment in the sequencing gel is a strict function of its molecular weight. Inosine substitution should markedly improve the resolution that can be obtained in the...
