The understanding of genome rearrangements is an important endeavor in comparative genomics. A major computational problem in this field is finding a shortest sequence of genome...
Abstract. During evolution, genomes are subject to genome rearrangements that alter the ordering and orientation of genes on the chromosomes. If a genome consists of a single chrom...
A block-interchange is a rearrangement event that exchanges two, not necessarily consecutive, contiguous regions in a genome, maintaining the original orientation. Signed reversal...
