Comparing Sequences with Segment Rearrangements
Computational genomics involves comparing sequences based on “similarity” for detecting evolutionary and functional relationships. Until very recently, available portions of th...

'Genome order index' should not be used for defining compositional constraints in nucleotide sequences
Background: The Z-curve is a three dimensional representation of DNA sequences proposed over a decade ago and has been extensively applied to sequence segmentation, horizontal gen...

Tests for Gene Clusters Satisfying the Generalized Adjacency Criterion
Abstract. We study a parametrized definition of gene clusters that permits control over the trade-off between increasing gene content versus conserving gene order within a cluster....

Prokaryote Phylogeny without Sequence Alignment: From Avoidance Signature to Composition Distance
A new and essentially simple method to reconstruct prokaryotic phylogenetic trees from their complete genome data without using sequence alignment is proposed. It is based on the ...

SIGI: score-based identification of genomic islands
Background: Genomic islands can be observed in many microbial genomes. These stretches of DNA have a conspicuous composition with regard to sequence or encoded functions. Genomic ...
