COMPARATIVE GENOMICS VISUALIZATION by YANQI

چکیده
As an increasing number of genomes are sequenced, comparative genomics analysis at different evolutionary distances plays a crucial role in decoding genomic information and discovering the similarities and differences between the genomes. It consists of three process steps: data preparation, sequence alignment, and visualization. In this thesis the major alignment methods and visualization tools are discussed. Based on an analysis of current work, we have designed and implemented a comparison visualization approach that satisfies the specific requirements of the CryptoDB project (http://cryptodb.org) (45). Our approach is written in Perl and based on the GBrowse framework. In addition, this study also presents an analysis of the comparison of C. hominis and C. parvum to find candidate insertions, deletions, and synteny blocks. Future work is also discussed. INDEX WORDS: comparative genomic analysis, evolutionary distance, CryptoDB, GBrowse, Perl, insertion and deletion, synteny block, rearrangement. COMPARATIVE GENOMICS VISUALIZATION

The increasing abundance of large-scale, high-throughput datasets for many closely related organisms provides opportunities for comparative analysis via the simultaneous biclustering of datasets from multiple species. These analyses require a reformulation of how to organize multi-species datasets and visualize comparative genomics data analyses results. Recently, we developed a method, multi-s...
متن کاملComparative genomics of human stem cell factor (SCF)
Stem cell factor (SCF) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. In the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of SCF was performed in Humanoids using bioinformatics tools including NCBI-BLAST, MEGA6, and JBrowse. Our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by NCB...
