Characterization and Similarity Analysis of DNA Sequences Considering Codon Degeneracy

چکیده
We introduce a new 2D graphic representation of DNA sequences considering codon degeneracy. Derived from the graphic representation, a multi-component vector is proposed to characterize quantitatively DNA sequences. Then we use the graphic representation and the vector to perform the phylogenetic analysis on two datasets, the complete coding sequences of the -globin genes of 11 species and the HA genes of 16 influenza A (H1N1) isolates. The experimental assessment demonstrates the efficiency of the proposed method.

Characterization of beta tubulin DNA sequences within the Candida parapsilosis complex
Abstract Background and Purpose: Candida parapsilosis is a common cause of candidemia in children and onco-hematologic patients as well as in patients with septic arthritis, peritonitis, vaginitis, and nail and skin infections. Here, we evaluated intra- and inter-species beta tubulin DNA sequence variation within the C. parapsilosis complex with a view to establishing its utility in the identi...
متن کاملA Convolutional Code-Based Sequence Analysis Model and Its Application
A new approach for encoding DNA sequences as input for DNA sequence analysis is proposed using the error correction coding theory of communication engineering. The encoder was designed as a convolutional code model whose generator matrix is designed based on the degeneracy of codons, with a codon treated in the model as an informational unit. The utility of the proposed model was demonstrated t...
متن کاملCodon bias patterns in photosynthetic genes of halophytic grass Aeluropus littoralis
Codon bias refers to the differences in the frequency of occurrence of synonymous codons in coding DNA. Pattern of codon and optimum codon utilization is significantly different between the lives. This difference is due to the long term function of natural selection and evolution process. Genetics drift, mutation and regulation of gene expression are the main reasons for codon bias. In this stu...

P53 is one of the gene that has important role in human cell cycle and in the human cancers too.Models of codon substitution make it possible to separate mutational biases in the DNA fromselective constraints on the protein, and offer a great advantage over amino acid models forunderstanding the evolutionary process of proteins and protein-coding DNA sequences. In thiswork, we investigated abou...
متن کاملMolecular detection and genotypic characterization of Toxoplasma gondii in paraffin-embedded fetoplacental tissues of women with recurrent spontaneous abortion
Background Congenital toxoplasmosis is an important cause of spontaneous abortion worldwide. However, there is limited information on detection and genotypic characterization of T. gondii in women with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). The aim of this study is molecular detection and genotypic characterization of T. gondii in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded fetoplacental tissues (FFPTs) o...
