Are there rearrangement hotspots in the human genome? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2007
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.

Complete Genome Sequencing of Leptospira interrogans Isolates from Malaysia Reveals Massive Genome Rearrangement but High Conservation of Virulence-Associated Genes

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
The ability of Leptospirae to persist in environments and animal hosts but to cause clinically highly variable disease in humans has made leptospirosis the most common zoonotic disease.

Rearrangement Events on Circular Genomes

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2023
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]

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2018
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

Linkage Disequilibrium-Based Inference of Genome Homology and Chromosomal Rearrangements Between Species

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
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]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
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

open access: yeseLife, 2022
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
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]

open access: yesJournal of Universal Computer Science, 2019
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 ...

GRSR: a tool for deriving genome rearrangement scenarios from multiple unichromosomal genome sequences

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2018
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.
