Predicting Whether Or Not a 60-Base DNA Sequence Contains a Centrally-Located Splice Site Using Genetic Programming
نویسنده
چکیده
An evolutionary computation technique, genetic programming, was used to create programs that classify DNA sequences into one of three classes: (1) contains a centrally-located donor splice site, (2) contains a centrally-located acceptor splice site, and (3) contains neither donor nor an acceptor. The performance of the programs created are competitive with previous work.

Genetic defect in muscle phosphofructokinase deficiency. Abnormal splicing of the muscle phosphofructokinase gene due to a point mutation at the 5'-splice site.
The genetic defect in muscle phosphofructokinase deficiency (type VII glycogenosis, Tarui disease) was investigated. Six cDNAs for muscle phosphofructokinase, including a full-length clone, were isolated from a non-amplified library of muscle from a patient. By sequence analysis of these clones, a 75-base in-frame deletion was identified. The rest of the sequence was identical to that of the no...
متن کاملEST_GENOME: a program to align spliced DNA sequences to unspliced genomic DNA
This note describes the program EST_GENOME for aligning spliced DNA to unspliced genomic DNA. It is written in ANSI C and has been tested under Digital OSF3.2. The spurce code and documentation are available from ftp:// www.sanger.ac.uky ftp/pub/ badger/est_genome.2.tar.Z. The prediction of genes in uncharacterized genomic DNA sequence is currently one of the main problems facing sequence annot...
متن کاملTrans-splicing and alternative-tandem-cis-splicing: two ways by which mammalian cells generate a truncated SV40 T-antigen.
The early SV40 BstXI-BamHI (Bst/Bam) DNA fragment encodes exclusively for the second exon of the large T-antigen and contains the intact small t-antigen intron. Rat cells transformed by the p14T, a construct that carries the Bst/Bam DNA fragment as a tail-to-head tandem duplication, synthesize a truncated T-antigen (T1-antigen) without having a direct equivalent at the DNA level. Formation of t...
متن کاملThe U1 snRNP base pairs with the 5' splice site within a penta-snRNP complex.
Recognition of the 5' splice site is an important step in mRNA splicing. To examine whether U1 approaches the 5' splice site as a solitary snRNP or as part of a multi-snRNP complex, we used a simplified in vitro system in which a short RNA containing the 5' splice site sequence served as a substrate in a binding reaction. This system allowed us to study the interactions of the snRNPs with the 5...

Members the DNA Methyltransferases (DNMT) gene family have been shown to play fundamental roles in regulating embryonic growth and development from embryonic fertilization to postnatal life; through regulating the establishment and/or maintenance of specific epigenetic marks. The present study was conducted to identify potential reported mutations within the exon 33 of DNMT-1, intron 4 of DNMT-...
