CorGen--measuring and generating long-range correlations for DNA sequence analysisPhilipp W Messer
Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Ihnestrasse 73, 14195 Berlin, Germany
Nucleic Acids Res 34:W692-5. 2006..We use an expansion-randomization dynamics to efficiently generate the correlated random sequences. The server is available at http://corgen.molgen.mpg.de...
The majority of recent short DNA insertions in the human genome are tandem duplicationsPhilipp W Messer
Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin, Germany
Mol Biol Evol 24:1190-7. 2007....
Effects of long-range correlations in DNA on sequence alignment score statisticsPhilipp W Messer
Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Berlin, Germany
J Comput Biol 14:655-68. 2007..The significance of measured alignment scores will therefore change upon incorporation of the correlations in the null model. We discuss the magnitude of this effect in a biological context...
Solvable sequence evolution models and genomic correlationsPhilipp W Messer
Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Cologne, , Germany
Phys Rev Lett 94:138103. 2005..These results are obtained analytically and by simulations. They are compared with the long-range correlations observed in genomic DNA, and the implications for genome evolution are discussed...
