An Interactive Gameplay to Crowdsource Multiple Sequence Alignment of Genome Sequences: Genenigma

Comparative genomics is a field of research that compares genomes of different organisms to identify common patterns. It is a powerful method used to identify the genetic diseases that cause mutations. Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) is an intermediate s ...

Rapid identification and interpretation of gene‐environment associations using the new R.SamBada landscape genomics pipeline

Stéphane Joost, Oliver Michele Selmoni, Estelle Rochat, Sylvie Stucki, Kevin Leempoel, Elia Vajana

Samβada is a genome‐environment association (GEA) software, designed to search for signatures of local adaptation. However, pre‐ and post‐processing of data can be labour‐intensive, preventing wider uptake of the method. We have now developed R.SamBada, an ...

The gene family-free median of three

Metin Balaban

Background: The gene family-free framework for comparative genomics aims at providing methods for gene order analysis that do not require prior gene family assignment, but work directly on a sequence similarity graph. We study two problems related to the b ...

New Genome Similarity Measures based on Conserved Gene Adjacencies

Bernard Moret, Shachi Shailesh Deshpande

Many important questions in molecular biology, evolution, and biomedicine can be addressed by comparative genomic approaches. One of the basic tasks when comparing genomes is the definition of measures of similarity (or dissimilarity) between two genomes, ...

The evolution of gene expression and binding specificity of the largest transcription factor family in primates

Didier Trono, Jeffrey David Jensen, Adamantia Kapopoulou, Lisha Mathew

The KRAB-containing zinc finger (KRAB-ZF) proteins represent the largest family of transcription factors (TFs) in humans, yet for the great majority, their function and specific genomic target remain unknown. However, it has been shown that a large fractio ...

Models and Algorithms for Comparative Genomics

Mingfu Shao

The deluge of sequenced whole-genome data has motivated the study of comparative genomics, which provides global views on genome evolution, and also offers practical solutions in deciphering the functional roles of components of genomes. A fundamental comp ...

Comparing genomes with rearrangements and segmental duplications

Bernard Moret, Mingfu Shao

Motivation: Large-scale evolutionary events such as genomic rearrange. ments and segmental duplications form an important part of the evolution of genomes and are widely studied from both biological and computational perspectives. A basic computational pro ...

Tetra- and trichloroethene (PCE, TCE) are organohalides polluting the environment as a result of inappropriate use, storage, and disposal by various industries. Anthropogenic pollution by organohalides is a major source of concern because of their undesira ...

The characterization of goat genetic diversity: Towards a genomic approach

Stéphane Joost, Pierre Taberlet

The investigation of genetic diversity at molecular level has been proposed as a valuable complement and sometimes proxy to phenotypic diversity of local breeds and is presently considered as one of the FAO priorities for breed characterization. By recomme ...
