Compositional bias in DNA

C Gautier. Curr Opin Genet Dev. 2000 Dec.

Abstract

Experimental approaches, as well as computer analysis on genomic sequences, have revealed a large variability in base composition between regions in the same genome or between genomes of different species. In most cases, however, the biological causes of these compositional biases remain unknown. The recent large increase in the availability of completely sequenced genomes can give new insight into evolution processes involved in these compositional biases.
