Background: A finite state machine manipulating information-carrying DNA strands can be used to perform autonomous molecular-scale computations at the cellular level. Results: We ...
The C-value Paradox is the name given in biology to the wide variance in and often very large amount of DNA in eukaryotic genomes and the poor correlation between DNA length and p...
Determining whether two DNA sequences are similar is an essential component of DNA sequence analysis. Dynamic programming is the algorithm of choice if computational time is not t...
The process of gene assembly in ciliates, an ancient group of organisms, is one of the most complex instances of DNA manipulation known in any organism. Three molecular operations...
Background: Improvements in DNA sequencing technology and methodology have led to the rapid expansion of databases comprising DNA sequence, gene and genome data. Lower operational...
