Two models for gene assembly in ciliates have been proposed and investigated in the last few years. The DNA manipulations postulated in the two models are very different: one mode...
The intramolecular model for gene assembly in ciliates considers three operations, ld, hi, and dlad that can assemble any gene pattern through folding and recombination: the molec...

We propose two different ways to simulate Boolean circuits in the framework of ciliate computations, based on the intramolecular and on the intermolecular gene assembly models wit...
Abstract. Gene assembly in ciliates is an impressive computational process. Ciliates have a unique way of storing their genetic information in two fundamentally different forms wi...
We investigate in this paper a simple intramolecular model for gene assembly in ciliates. Unlike the general intramolecular model, the folds that a micronuclear chromosome may for...
