  1. 6. Methods and applications in DNA sequence alignments

    Författare :Ellen Sherwood; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :DNA sequence alignment; CNV; Chicken; Trypanosoma cruzi.;

    Sammanfattning : DNA sequence alignment is one of the most common bioinformatics tasks. Alignment analysis for eukaryotic genomes is challenging because the datasets are large. Repeat sequences also make the analysis difficult. This thesis describes new methods which we have developed for DNA sequence alignment that address these problems. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Structural Information and Hidden Markov Models for Biological Sequence Analysis

    Författare :Jeanette Tångrot; Bo Kågström; Uwe H. Sauer; Erik Sonnhammer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HMM; structure alignment; protein structure; secondary structure; remote homologue; annotation; domain family; protein family; protein superfamily; protein fold recognition; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik;

    Sammanfattning : Bioinformatics is a fast-developing field, which makes use of computational methods to analyse and structure biological data. An important branch of bioinformatics is structure and function prediction of proteins, which is often based on finding relationships to already characterized proteins. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Bioinformatic Analysis of Mutation and Selection in the Vertebrate Non-coding Genome

    Författare :Mikael Brandström; Hans Ellegren; Diethard Tautz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Biology; non-coding genome; selection; mutation; chicken; human; indel; microsatellite; sequence alignment; comparative genomics; bioinformatics; vertebrate; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : The majority of the vertebrate genome sequence is not coding for proteins. In recent years, the evolution of this noncoding fraction of the genome has gained interest. These studies have been greatly facilitated by the availability of full genome sequences. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Enabling massive genomic and transcriptomic analysis

    Författare :Henrik Stranneheim; Joakim Lundeberg; Elaine Mardis; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DNA; RNA; sequencing; massively parallel sequencing; alignment; assembly; single nucleotide polymorphism; LHON;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years there have been tremendous advances in our ability to rapidly and cost-effectively sequence DNA. This has revolutionized the fields of genetics and biology, leading to a deeper understanding of the molecular events in life processes. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Retroviral long Terminal Repeats; Structure, Detection and Phylogeny

    Författare :Farid Benachenhou; Jonas Blomberg; Göran Sperber; Aris Katzourakis; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Retrovirus; long terminal repeats; hidden Markov models; phylogeny; alignment; conserved motif; stem-loop; Clinical virology; Klinisk virologi; Klinisk virologi; Clinical Virology;

    Sammanfattning : Long terminal repeats (LTRs) are non-coding repeats flanking the protein-coding genes of LTR retrotransposons. The variability of LTRs poses a challenge in studying them. Hidden Markov models (HMMs), probabilistic models widely used in pattern recognition, are useful in dealing with this variability. LÄS MER
