Summary: Understanding the roles played by centromeres in chromosome evolution and speciation is complicated by the fact that centromeres comprise large arrays of tandemly repeated satellite DNA, which hinders high-quality assembly.

AGMIAL: implementing an annotation strategy for prokaryote genomes as a distributed system
We have implemented a genome annotation system for prokaryotes called AGMIAL. Our approach embodies a number of key principles. First, expert manual annotators are seen as a critical component of the overall system; user interfaces were cyclically ...

Assignment of orthologous genes via genome rearrangement [PDF]
—The assignment of orthologous genes between a pair of genomes is a fundamental and challenging problem in comparative genomics. Existing methods that assign orthologs based on the similarity between DNA or protein sequences may make erroneous ...

Genome architecture, rearrangement and evolution in the ciliate Oxytricha trifallax
Genome rearrangements contribute to genome instability that is commonly associated with human diseases, especially cancer. Ciliates are best known for their programmed DNA rearrangements in a single cell that completely rewire a germline into a somatic ...
