the main purpose of this paper is to introduce afast method for gene prediction in dna sequences based on the period-3 property in exons. first, the symbolic dna sequences are converted to digital signal using the eiip method. then, to reduce the effect of background noise in the period-3 spectrum, we use the discrete wavelet transform (dwt) at three levels and apply it on the input digital sig...

toxoplasmosis is an infection caused by the protozoan parasite toxoplasma gondii (t.gondii) throughout the world. although usually asymptomatic, the infection can cause serious medical problems in immunocompromised individuals and fetuses. toxoplasmosis also causes considerable economic loss because of abortion in livestock. dna vaccination is a promising approach against intracellular parasite...

Uncovering DNA sequence variations that correlate with phenotypic changes, e.g., diseases, is the aim of sequence variation studies. Common types sequence variations are Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP, pronounced snip).SNPs are the third-generation molecular marker. SNP represents a DNA sequence variant of a single base pair with the minor allele occurring in more than 1% of a given popula...

The phylogenetic relationship of five sturgeon species in the South Caspian Sea was investigated using mtDNA molecule. Sequence analysis of mtDNA D-loop region of five sturgeon species [Great sturgeon (Huso huso), Russian sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus), Ship sturgeon (Acipenser nudiventris), Stellate sturgeon (Acipenser stellatus)] and DNA sequencing...
