Phylogenetic Analysis of Three Long Non-coding RNA Genes: AK082072, AK043754 and AK082467
Now, it is clear that protein is just one of the most functional products produced by the eukaryotic genome. Indeed, a major part of the human genome is transcribed to non-coding sequences than to the coding sequence of the protein. In this study, we selected three long non-coding RNAs namely AK082072, AK043754 and AK082467 which show brain expression and local region conservation among vertebr...
متن کاملAn unusual form of purifying selection in a sperm protein.
Protamines are small, highly basic DNA-binding proteins found in the sperm of animals. Interestingly, the proportion of arginine residues in one type of protamine, protamine P1, is about 50% in mammals. Upon closer examination, it was found that both the total number of amino acids and the positions of arginine residues have changed considerably during the course of mammalian evolution. This ev...
متن کاملA Dual Model for Prioritizing Cancer Mutations in the Non-coding Genome Based on Germline and Somatic Events
We address here the issue of prioritizing non-coding mutations in the tumoral genome. To this aim, we created two independent computational models. The first (germline) model estimates purifying selection based on population SNP data. The second (somatic) model estimates tumor mutation density based on whole genome tumor sequencing. We show that each model reflects a different set of constraint...
متن کاملDETECTION OF BACTERIA BY AMPLIFYING THE 16S rRNA GENE WITH UNIVERSAL PRIMERS AND RFLP
Background: There is a conserved portion in the 16S rRNA gene of bacteria which can be amplified by the universal PCR method. This fragment is 996 bp in length. In this method, only one set of universal primers is used for the amplification of the conserved region of the 16S rRNA gene, in common bacterial pathogens. Therefore, using the universal PCR method, these bacteria are detectable on...
متن کاملPurifying selection shapes the coincident SNP distribution of primate coding sequences
Genome-wide analysis has observed an excess of coincident single nucleotide polymorphisms (coSNPs) at human-chimpanzee orthologous positions, and suggested that this is due to cryptic variation in the mutation rate. While this phenomenon primarily corresponds with non-coding coSNPs, the situation in coding sequences remains unclear. Here we calculate the observed-to-expected ratio of coSNPs (co...
