Are there rearrangement hotspots in the human genome? [PDF]
In a landmark paper, Nadeau and Taylor [18] formulated the random breakage model (RBM) of chromosome evolution that postulates that there are no rearrangement hotspots in the human genome.

Rearrangement Events on Circular Genomes
AbstractEarly literature on genome rearrangement modelling views the problem of computing evolutionary distances as an inherently combinatorial one. In particular, attention is given to estimating distances using the minimum number of events required to transform one genome into another.

Finding local genome rearrangements [PDF]
The double cut and join (DCJ) model of genome rearrangement is well studied due to its mathematical simplicity and power to account for the many events that transform gene order. These studies have mostly been devoted to the understanding of minimum length scenarios transforming one genome into another. In this paper we search instead for rearrangement

The aim of this study was to analyze the genomic homology between cattle (Bos taurus) and buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) and to propose a rearrangement of the buffalo genome through linkage disequilibrium analyses of buffalo SNP markers referenced in the ...

progressiveMauve: multiple genome alignment with gene gain, loss and rearrangement. [PDF]
Multiple genome alignment remains a challenging problem. Effects of recombination including rearrangement, segmental duplication, gain, and loss can create a mosaic pattern of homology even among closely related organisms.We describe a new method to ...

Comparative genomics reveals insight into the evolutionary origin of massively scrambled genomes
Ciliates are microbial eukaryotes that undergo extensive programmed genome rearrangement, a natural genome editing process that converts long germline chromosomes into smaller gene-rich somatic chromosomes.

A New Algorithm for Identifying Genome Rearrangements in the Mammalian Evolution
Genome rearrangements are the evolutionary events on level of genomes. It is a global view on evolution research of species to analyze the genome rearrangements.

Sorting Permutations by λ-Operations [PDF]
For estimating the evolutionary distance between genomes of two different organisms, many sorting permutation problems have emerged. A well accepted way to do this is considering the smallest sequence of rearrangement events { mutations which affect ...

Background Genome rearrangements describe changes in the genetic linkage relationship of large chromosomal regions, involving reversals, transpositions, block interchanges, deletions, insertions, fissions, fusions and translocations etc.
