The Enhanced Double Digest Problem for DNA Physical Mapping
نویسندگان
چکیده
The double digest problem is a common NP-hard approach to constructing physical maps of DNA sequences. This paper presents a new approach called the enhanced double digest problem. Although this new problem is also NP-hard, it can be solved in linear time in certain theoretically interesting cases.

Modeling of Partial Digest Problem as a Network flows problem
Restriction Site Mapping is one of the interesting tasks in Computational Biology. A DNA strand can be thought of as a string on the letters A, T, C, and G. When a particular restriction enzyme is added to a DNA solution, the DNA is cut at particular restriction sites. The goal of the restriction site mapping is to determine the location of every site for a given enzyme. In partial digest metho...
متن کاملA Continuous Optimization Model for Partial Digest Problem
The pupose of this paper is modeling of Partial Digest Problem (PDP) as a mathematical programming problem. In this paper we present a new viewpoint of PDP. We formulate the PDP as a continuous optimization problem and develope a method to solve this problem. Finally we constract a linear programming model for the problem with an additional constraint. This later model can be solved by the simp...
متن کاملComputational Biology Lecture 13: Physical mapping by hybridization
As mentioned before, we have two approaches for physical mapping: Restriction mapping and mapping by hybridization. We covered restriction mapping previously through the two problems of double digest and partial digest. We now look at mapping by hybridization. While restriction mapping involves the mapping of restriction sites (precise short sequences) of a cutting enzyme based on the lengths o...
متن کاملMolecular solutions for double and partial digest problems in polynomial time
A fundamental problem in computational biology is the construction of physical maps of chromosomes from the hybridization experiments between unique probes and clones of chromosome fragments. Double and partial digest problems are two intractable problems used to construct physical maps of DNA molecules in bioinformatics. Several approaches, including exponential algorithms and heuristic algori...
متن کاملThe Simplified Partial Digest Problem: Hardness and a Probabilistic Analysis
Introduction We study the problem of genome mapping using restriction site analysis. In restriction site analysis, an enzyme cuts a target DNA strand into DNA fragments, and these DNA fragments are used to reconstruct the restriction site locations of the enzyme. Two common approaches are the Double Digest Problem and the Partial Digest Problem. The Double Digest Problem is known to be NP-Compl...
