We have used comparative genome analyses to produce annotated maps for large genomic loci. The first example is a locus on mouse chromosome 9 that is syntenic to human chromosome ...
The ever increasing rate at which whole genome sequences are becoming accessible to the scientific community has created an urgent need for tools enabling comparison of chromosome...

Background: Genomic islands (GIs) are clusters of genes in prokaryotic genomes of probable horizontal origin. GIs are disproportionately associated with microbial adaptations of m...

Background: There exist many segmentation techniques for genomic sequences, and the segmentations can also be based on many different biological features. We show how to evaluate ...
Background: Understanding transcriptional regulation of gene expression is one of the greatest challenges of modern molecular biology. A central role in this mechanism is played b...
