Predicting CpG Islands and DNA Methlation in the Cow Genome Using DNA Microarray Meta-Analysis and Genome Wide Scanning
DNA methylation is a type of epigenetic changes that directly affects DNA. In mammals, DNA methylation is essential for fetal development and stem cell differentiation and this phenomenon essentially occurs within the CpG islands. In this study, two methods were used to study the DNA methylation profile of cow genome. In the first method, the DNA methylation profile of the differentially expres...
متن کاملA Genome-wide Analysis of Perfect Inverted Repeats in Arabidopsis Thaliana
A GENOME-WIDE ANALYSIS OF PERFECT INVERTED REPEATS IN ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA by Sutharzan Sreeskandarajan Perfect inverted repeats play wide variety of roles in genomes. In this study, we conduct a genome-wide analysis of perfect inverted repeats in Arabidopsis thaliana and explore the biological significance of the observed inverted repeat distribution. The roles of palindromic sequences are rev...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Stochastic Adaptive DNA Amplification at Direct and Inverted DNA Repeats in the Parasite Leishmania
Gene amplification of specific loci has been described in all kingdoms of life. In the protozoan parasite Leishmania, the product of amplification is usually part of extrachromosomal circular or linear amplicons that are formed at the level of direct or inverted repeated sequences. A bioinformatics screen revealed that repeated sequences are widely distributed in the Leishmania genome and the r...
متن کاملGenome-wide copy number analysis in pediatric glioblastoma multiforme.
Glioblastoma (GBM) is a very aggressive and lethal brain tumor with poor prognosis. Despite new treatment strategies, patients' median survival is still less than 1 year in most cases. Few studies have focused exclusively on this disease in children and most of our understanding of the disease process and its clinical outcome has come from studies on malignant gliomas in childhood, combining ch...
متن کاملDiscovering Tumor Suppressor Genes Through Genome-Wide Copy Number Analysis
Classical tumor suppressor gene discovery has largely involved linkage analysis and loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) screens, followed by detailed mapping of relatively large chromosomal regions. Subsequent efforts made use of genome-wide PCR-based methods to detect rare homozygous deletions. More recently, high-resolution genomic arrays have been applied to cancer gene discovery. However, accurate...
