Statistical evaluation of the coding capacity of complementary DNA strands.
Two independent methods are used to evaluate the protein-coding information content in different classes of DNA sequences. The first method allows to evaluate the statistical relevance of finding unidentified reading frames, longer than 100 codons, on both DNA strands of: a) 117 DNA sequences that code for 142 nuclear proteins; b) 39 stable RNA coding sequences and c) 36 other DNA sequences whi...
متن کاملCoding capacity of complementary DNA strands.
A Fortran computer algorithm has been used to analyze the nucleotide sequence of several structural genes. The analysis performed on both coding and complementary DNA strands shows that whereas open reading frames shorter than 100 codons are randomly distributed on both DNA strands, open reading frames longer than 100 codons ("virtual genes") are significantly more frequent on the complementary...
متن کاملWhy are complementary DNA strands symmetric?
MOTIVATION Over sufficiently long windows, complementary strands of DNA tend to have the same base composition. A few reports have indicated that this first-order parity rule extends at higher orders to oligonucleotide composition, at least in some organisms or taxa. However, the scientific literature falls short of providing a comprehensive study of reverse-complement symmetry at multiple orde...
متن کاملMechanical separation of the complementary strands of DNA.
We describe the mechanical separation of the two complementary strands of a single molecule of bacteriophage lambda DNA. The 3' and 5' extremities on one end of the molecule are pulled progressively apart, and this leads to the opening of the double helix. The typical forces along the opening are in the range of 10-15 pN. The separation force signal is shown to be related to the local GC vs. AT...
متن کاملthe evaluation of language related engagment and task related engagment with the purpose of investigating the effect of metatalk and task typology
abstract while task-based instruction is considered as the most effective way to learn a language in the related literature, it is oversimplified on various grounds. different variables may affect how students are engaged with not only the language but also with the task itself. the present study was conducted to investigate language and task related engagement on the basis of the task typolog...
