Statistical analysis of the DNA sequence of human chromosome 22.
We study statistical patterns in the DNA sequence of human chromosome 22, the first completely sequenced human chromosome. We find that (i). the 33.4 x 10(6) nucleotide long human chromosome exhibits long-range power-law correlations over more than four orders of magnitude, (ii). the entropies H(n) of the frequency distribution of oligonucleotides of length n (n-mers) grow sublinearly with incr...
متن کاملDNA sequence and comparative analysis of chimpanzee chromosome 22.
Human-chimpanzee comparative genome research is essential for narrowing down genetic changes involved in the acquisition of unique human features, such as highly developed cognitive functions, bipedalism or the use of complex language. Here, we report the high-quality DNA sequence of 33.3 megabases of chimpanzee chromosome 22. By comparing the whole sequence with the human counterpart, chromoso...

متن کاملSequence and expression analysis of gaps in human chromosome 20
The finished human genome-assemblies comprise several hundred un-sequenced euchromatic gaps, which may be rich in long polypurine/polypyrimidine stretches. Human chromosome 20 (chr 20) currently has three unfinished gaps remaining on its q-arm. All three gaps are within gene-dense regions and/or overlap disease-associated loci, including the DLGAP4 locus. In this study, we sequenced ∼ 99% of al...
متن کاملChromosome-specific alpha satellite DNA: nucleotide sequence analysis of the 2.0 kilobasepair repeat from the human X chromosome.
The pericentromeric region of the human X chromosome is characterized by a tandemly repeated family of 2.0 kilobasepair (kb) DNA fragments, initially revealed by cleavage of human DNA with the restriction enzyme BamHI. We report here the complete nucleotide sequence of a cloned member of the repeat family and establish that this X-linked DNA family consists entirely of alpha satellite DNA. Our ...
