Ancestral Reconstruction
Ancestral reconstruction is the extrapolation back in time from measured characteristics of individuals (or populations) to their common ancestors. It is an important application of phylogenetics, the reconstruction and study of the evolutionary relationships among individuals, populations, or species to their ancestors. In the context of biology, ancestral reconstruction can be used to recover...
متن کاملGlobal Alignment of Molecular Sequences via Ancestral State Reconstruction
Molecular phylogenetic techniques do not generally account for such common evolutionary events as site insertions and deletions (known as indels). Instead tree building algorithms and ancestral state inference procedures typically rely on substitution-only models of sequence evolution. In practice these methods are extended beyond this simplified setting with the use of heuristics that produce ...
متن کاملAb initio reconstruction of metabolic pathways
We propose a new formulation for the problem of ab initio metabolic pathway reconstruction. Given a set of biochemical reactions together with their substrates and products, we consider the reactions as transfers of atoms between the chemical compounds and we look for successions of reactions transferring a maximal (or preset) number of atoms between a given source and sink compound. We state t...
متن کاملA comparison of ancestral state reconstruction methods for quantitative characters.
Choosing an ancestral state reconstruction method among the alternatives available for quantitative characters may be puzzling. We present here a comparison of seven of them, namely the maximum likelihood, restricted maximum likelihood, generalized least squares under Brownian, Brownian-with-trend and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck models, phylogenetic independent contrasts and squared parsimony methods. A...
متن کاملReconstruction of Ancestral Protosplice Sites
Most of the eukaryotic protein-coding genes are interrupted by multiple introns. A substantial fraction of introns occupy the same position in orthologous genes from distant eukaryotes, such as plants and animals, and consequently are inferred to have been inherited from the common ancestor of these organisms. In contrast to these conserved introns, many other introns appear to have been gained...
