If the somatic genome varies, how can the poly(A) site patterns from somatic cells be so stable between species and between subkingdoms, such as the nearly identical positions of base abundance peaks in the poly(A) site region between large plant and animal genomes?
In this mRNA-analysis study, we used ESTs of some species such as the protists Babesia bovis and Blastocystis hominis, because their poly(A) site patterns were very different from those of plants and animals, and therefore the minor differences between mRNA-based mapping and EST-based mapping would not significantly affect the discussion.
For each coalescent tree, a microsatellite site pattern was simulated under the microsatellite model with mutation rate equal to 1.0.
Our failure to identify high scoring CRP binding sites in the upstream regions of these nitrogen fixation genes in PCC7120 is actually in agreement with the finding by Suzuki and coworkers who suggested that AnCrpA might have a different binding site pattern from the conventional pseudo-palindromic motif [ 28].
Each of these displays a typical 'covarion-like' site pattern, i.e., a lot of different amino acid states occur in the bacterial group but no or little change occurs at that site in the eukaryotic group or vice versa.
We find that only Nef has a consensus MAPK docking site pattern on the most common HIV strains (A1, B, and C).
In order to place sequences on the optical map we need some notion of how well the restriction site pattern within a sequence matches a region of the optical map.
Comparing expected and observed values, 81 genes would have a poly(A) site efficiency pattern under selection.
Similarly, for this U-A-U-A-U poly(A) site region pattern in fungi, plants, and animals, it is likely that the transient versions during evolution should be functional to support the mutated individual.
There were 15 sampled haploid individuals in each site pattern.
