Characteristics of Human and Mouse Orthologous Protein-Coding Nucleotide Sequences with Large G+C Content Variations
Characteristics of human and mouse orthologous gene sequences which have large G+C content variations were investigated in this study. The orthologous gene pairs were classified into two groups according to the deviation between human and mouse G+C content at the third codon position (GC3) and were subsequently analyzed. In one group, mouse genes had higher GC3 than the corresponding human gene...
متن کاملNegative correlation of G+C content at silent substitution sites between orthologous human and mouse protein-coding sequences.
We conducted a genome-wide analysis of variations in guanine plus cytosine (G+C) content at the third codon position at silent substitution sites of orthologous human and mouse protein-coding nucleotide sequences. Alignments of 3776 human protein-coding DNA sequences with mouse orthologs having >50 synonymous codons were analyzed, and nucleotide substitutions were counted by comparing sequences...
متن کاملGC level and expression of human coding sequences.
Several groups have addressed the issue of the influence of GC on expression levels in mammalian genes. In general, GC-rich genes appeared to be more expressed than GC-poor ones. Recently, expression levels of GC(3)-rich and GC(3)-poor versions of genes (GC(3) is the third codon position GC), inserted in vector plasmids, were compared in order to eliminate differences associated with their geno...
متن کاملBiased Gene Conversion and GC-Content Evolution in the Coding Sequences of Reptiles and Vertebrates
Mammalian and avian genomes are characterized by a substantial spatial heterogeneity of GC-content, which is often interpreted as reflecting the effect of local GC-biased gene conversion (gBGC), a meiotic repair bias that favors G and C over A and T alleles in high-recombining genomic regions. Surprisingly, the first fully sequenced nonavian sauropsid (i.e., reptile), the green anole Anolis car...
متن کاملCharacteristics of sequences around individual nucleotide substitutions in IgVH genes suggest different GC and AT mutators.
Somatic hypermutation affects Ig genes during T-dependent B cell responses and is characterized by a high frequency of single base substitutions. Hypermutation is not a completely random process; a study of mutations in different systems has revealed the presence of sequence motifs that target mutation. In a recent analysis of the sequences surrounding individual mutated bases in out-of-frame h...
