Steps to find palindrome in genomes !

BioStar — Thu, 09 Mar 2023 02:56:54 -0600

Palindromes are sequences of nucleotides that read the same backward as forward. They can be present in genomes and have various biological functions. Here are some methods for discovering palindromes in genomes:

Direct sequence search: One of the simplest ways to discover palindromes is to search the genome sequence directly for palindromic sequences using pattern matching tools, such as regular expressions or string algorithms. This approach can be useful for discovering simple palindromes, but may miss more complex palindromic structures.
Dot plot analysis: Dot plot analysis is a graphical method that can be used to identify palindromic regions in a genome. It involves plotting the genome sequence against itself and examining the diagonal patterns that emerge. Palindromic regions will appear as symmetrical patterns along the diagonal.
Restriction enzyme analysis: Some restriction enzymes, such as EcoRI and HindIII, recognize palindromic sequences and cleave DNA at these sites. By digesting the genome with these enzymes and examining the resulting fragments, palindromic regions can be identified.
Next-generation sequencing: High-throughput sequencing technologies, such as PacBio and Oxford Nanopore, can generate long reads that can span entire palindromic regions. By mapping these reads to the genome, palindromic regions can be identified and characterized.
Comparative genomics: Comparing the genomes of related species can also reveal palindromic regions that are conserved across evolutionarily divergent lineages. This approach can help identify functional palindromes that are under selective pressure.

Overall, the discovery of palindromic sequences in genomes can be accomplished using a variety of methods, each with their own advantages and limitations. A combination of these methods can provide a comprehensive understanding of the palindromic landscape of a genome.

HECIL: A Hybrid Error Correction Algorithm for Long Reads with Iterative Learning

Abhimanyu Singh — Tue, 01 Jan 2019 12:01:00 -0600

HECIL—Hybrid Error Correction with Iterative Learning—a hybrid error correction framework that determines a correction policy for erroneous long reads, based on optimal combinations of decision weights obtained from short read alignments.

HECIL’s core algorithm by introducing an iterative learning paradigm that enhances the correction policy at each iteration by incorporating knowledge gathered from previous iterations via data-driven confidence metrics assigned to prior corrections.
