Evolution at the nucleotide level: the problem of multiple whole-genome alignmentColin N Dewey
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
Hum Mol Genet 15:R51-6. 2006..Within this framework, we review the current methods available for the alignment of multiple large genomes. We then describe a subset of tools that make biological inferences from multiple whole-genome alignments...
Genomic variation in natural populations of Drosophila melanogasterCharles H Langley
Department of Evolution and Ecology, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA
Genetics 192:533-98. 2012..Comparison of the variation among these genomes to variation among genomes from D. simulans suggests that many targets of directional selection are shared between these species...- Parametric alignment of Drosophila genomesColin N Dewey
Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, University of California Berkeley, Berkeley, California, USA
PLoS Comput Biol 2:e73. 2006..We also show how whole genome parametric alignment can be used to quantitatively assess the dependence of branch length estimates on alignment parameters... - Aligning multiple whole genomes with Mercator and MAVIDColin N Dewey

National Center for Biotechnology Information NLM, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20894, USA
BMC Genomics 7:311. 2006..We explored the connections between the length of vertebrate introns, the strength of splice sites, exonic splicing signals, and evolution of flanking exons... - Discovery of functional elements in 12 Drosophila genomes using evolutionary signaturesAlexander Stark
The Broad Institute, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02140, USA
Nature 450:219-32. 2007..We also study how discovery power scales with the divergence and number of species compared, and we provide general guidelines for comparative studies... - Identification and analysis of functional elements in 1% of the human genome by the ENCODE pilot projectEwan Birney
Nature 447:799-816. 2007..Together, these studies are defining a path for pursuit of a more comprehensive characterization of human genome function...
