[Statistical methods of comparative genomic analysis based on diffusion processes]
Abstract:
Comparative genomics is a powerful tool of genome functional specificity predictions and investigation of evolution specificity. Background of a large field of bioinformatics investigations is a computation of different scores of sequences and comparing them with a threshold. Comparative genomic analysis involves scores comparing for orthological groups of genetic objects. In this paper we represent a statistical approach to comparative genomic analysis, that based on investigation of diffusion in sequence space determined by neutral evolution of sequences. Using this approach we represent several statistics for selection pressure estimation and analyze statistics for several biological problems. We formulate technology of statistics applying to obtain new biological information. This approach is represented as Java-class library.

Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...
