Genome Sequence Analysis

چکیده
The human genome has approximately 3.5 billion base pairs (bp) and is an excellent example for the analysis of eukaryotic genomes. The goal of genome research is to sequence each one of these base pairs so that all the genes and regulatory regions in the genome can be located. This information can then be used to facilitate discoveries in the basic and clinical sciences. Thus, the aim of most largescale sequencing projects is the discovery of new genes in previously uncharacterized or only partially characterized genomic DNA sequences. A gene, which is the basic functional unit of heredity, is typically a specific sequence of nucleotides that carries the information required for making a functional protein or, in some cases, a functional RNA. Several computational methods have been developed for analysing genomic sequences and the identification of genes.

Comparative bioinformatics analysis of a wild diploid Gossypium with two cultivated allotetraploid species
Background: Gossypium thurberi is a wild diploid species that has been used to improve cultivated allotetraploid cotton. G. thurberi belongs to D genome, which is an important wild bio-source for the cotton breeding and genetic research. To a certain degree, chloroplast DNA sequence information are a versatile tool for species identification and phylogenetic implications in plants. Different ch...
متن کاملIndependence of color intensity variation in red flesh apples from the number of repeat units in promoter region of the MdMYB10 gene as an allele to MdMYB1 and MdMYBA
MdMYB10 gene expression results in accumulation of anthocyanin in many tissues including flesh of applefruit. The MdMYB1 and MdMYBA genes are close homologues to MdMYB10 gene and both are responsiblefor red color phenotype in apple fruit skin. In the current study, an apple genome sequence draft analysisindicated that these three genes are located in a unique contig. Further a...
متن کاملPhylogenetic 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...
