Based on the representation of the DNA sequence as a two-dimensional (2D) plane walk, we consider the problem of identification and comparison of functional and structural organizations of chromosomes of different organisms. According to the characteristic design of 2D walks we identify telomere sites, palindromes of various sizes and complexity, areas of ribosomal RNA, transposons, as well as diverse satellite sequences. As an interesting result of the application of the 2D walk method, a new…

Hidden Chromosome Symmetry: In Silico Transformation Reveals Symmetry in 2D DNA Walk Trajectories of 671 Chromosomes
TLDR
It is found that frequency distributions of the length of gene clusters, continuously located on the same strand, have close values for both strands, and Eukaryotic gene distribution is believed to be non-random.
Analysis of compensatory substitution and gene evolution on the MAGEA/CSAG-palindrome of the primate X chromosomes
Empirical Relationship between Intra-Purine and Intra-Pyrimidine Differences in Conserved Gene Sequences
TLDR
It is reported here their observation based on a graphical representation that the intra-purine and intra-pyrimidine differences in sequences of conserved genes generally follow a quadratic distribution relationship and show that this may have arisen from mutations in the sequences over evolutionary time scales.
Computational Study of Dispersion and Extent of Mutated and Duplicated Sequences of the H5N1 Influenza Neuraminidase over the Period 1997-2008
TLDR
These kinds of high level of mutation in major part of the H5N1 NA sequences and recombinations within structural segments coupled with strong conservation of a few select segments show that the potential of rapid mutations to more virulent forms of this variety of avian flu continue to remain of concern.
Symmetry Analysis of an X-palindrome in Human and Chimpanzee
TLDR
Although the overall changes that occurred in the human X-palindrome are fewer than in the chimpanzee, mutations occurring between the left arm and right arm were nearly equivalent both in human and chimpanzee when compared with orangutan, which implies evolutionary synchronization.
Alignment-Free Analyses of Nucleic Acid Sequences Using Graphical Representation (with Special Reference to Pandemic Bird Flu and Swine Flu)
TLDR
It is determined that the virus can spread conserved over space and time, that influenza virus can undergo fairly conspicuous recombination-like events in segmented genes, and that certain segments of the neuraminidase and hemagglutinin surface proteins remain conserved and can be targeted for peptide vaccines.
Intermittency as a universal characteristic of the complete chromosome DNA sequences of eukaryotes: from protozoa to human genomes.
TLDR
It is shown that the recently discovered gene number balance on the strands is not of a random nature, and certain subsystems of a complete chromosome DNA sequence exhibit the properties of deterministic chaos.
Computational analysis and determination of a highly conserved surface exposed segment in H5N1 avian flu and H1N1 swine flu neuraminidase
TLDR
This conserved region is proposed as a probable site for designing inhibitors for broad-spectrum pandemic control of flu viruses with similar NA structure, especially significant as it is surface exposed and structural chemistry reveals the probable role of this stretch in tetrameric stabilization.
Part III: The Klein Bottle Logic of Genomics and its Dynamics, Quantum Information, Complexity and Palindromic Repeats in Evolution
TLDR
It is proposed that Clustered Regularly Interspersed Palindromic Repeats (CRISPRs) may serve as an indication for the feasibility of this theory of evolution, serving as both the memory of genomes as well as providing the adaptability vis-à-vis other alien agents.

Palindromic DNA and Genome Stability: Further Studies a
TLDR
The fine structure of centrally deleted palindromes was sampled by analysis of recombinant junctions isolated from testes DNA, providing further evidence for a model that accounts for such deletions on the basis of a hairpin‐tip nicking activity.
Hotspots of mammalian chromosomal evolution
TLDR
This analysis supports a nonrandom model of chromosomal evolution that implicates specific regions within the mammalian genome as having been predisposed to both recurrent small-scale duplication and large-scale evolutionary rearrangements.
Genome evolution in yeasts
TLDR
Analysis of chromosome maps and genome redundancies reveal that the different yeast lineages have evolved through a marked interplay between several distinct molecular mechanisms, including tandem gene repeat formation, segmental duplication, a massive genome duplication and extensive gene loss.
The human genome-wide distribution of DNA palindromes
TLDR
It is found that 24 palindrome-abundant intervals are mostly located on G-bands, which condense early, replicate late, and are relatively A+T rich, which means that in general, palindromes are overrepresented in introns but underrepresented in exons.
The male-specific region of the human Y chromosome is a mosaic of discrete sequence classes
TLDR
The male-specific region of the Y chromosome, the MSY, differentiates the sexes and comprises 95% of the chromosome's length, and is a mosaic of heterochromatic sequences and three classes of euchromatics sequences: X-transposed, X-degenerate and ampliconic.
The origin and evolution of human ampliconic gene families and ampliconic structure.
TLDR
Out of the nine male-specific gene families in the human Y chromosome amplicons, this work investigates the origin and evolution of seven families for which gametologous and orthologous sequences are available and investigates the evolutionary relatedness among Y-linked copies of a gene family in light of their ampliconic locations.
Widespread and nonrandom distribution of DNA palindromes in cancer cells provides a structural platform for subsequent gene amplification
TLDR
It is shown that palindromes occur frequently and are widespread in human cancers, and individual tumors seem to have a nonrandom distribution of palindROMes in their genomes, and a subset of palINDromic loci is associated with gene amplification.
Discovery of Human Inversion Polymorphisms by Comparative Analysis of Human and Chimpanzee DNA Sequence Assemblies
TLDR
The results suggest that inversions are an important source of variation in primate genome evolution and the finding of at least three novel inversion polymorphisms in humans indicates this type of structural variation may be a more common feature of the authors' genome than previously realized.
Inverted repeat structure of the human genome: the X-chromosome contains a preponderance of large, highly homologous inverted repeats that contain testes genes.
TLDR
The prevalence of large highly homologous IRs containing testes genes on the X- and Y-chromosomes suggests a possible role in male germ-line gene expression and/or maintaining sequence integrity by gene conversion.
Human gene organization driven by the coordination of replication and transcription.
TLDR
A new model of gene organization in the human genome is provided, which integrates transcription, replication, and chromatin structure as coordinated determinants of genome architecture.
