The Relation between Indel Length and Functional Divergence: A Formal Study
[chapter]
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Preserved Fulltext
Distinguishing between indel and non-indel pairs, according to our novel statistics, revealed that, despite having the same sequence identity, indel pairs are significantly less functionally similar than ...
This suggests that indels cause more severe functional changes than other types of sequence variation and that indel statistics should be taken into additional account to assess functional similarity between ...
Acknowledgements We would like to greatly thank Francisco Couto and Daniel Faria for computing the GO similarity values and Michael Coons for helpful discussions and proofreading the mathematical parts ...

Defined as the distance between their amplitude spectra, ASD can be computed efficiently and provides a parameter-free measure of the global shape dissimilarity of two fragments. ...
Yet, there is still a lack of more progressive scores, with meaningful intermediate values, for the comparison, retrieval or clustering of distantly related fragments. ...

Results: We formalize the notion of divergence after duplication, and provide a theoretical basis for the inference of primary and secondary orthologs. ...
This has important consequences on the prediction of orthology relationships, since two orthologous genes separated by divergence after duplication may differ in both sequence and function. ...
Thus for each gene tree and each ∈ {1, 2, 8, 50}, we used INDELiBLE to generate a set of extant gene sequences obtained by multiplying the length each divergent edge by . ...
