On the other hand, hydrophobicity analysis indicates that half of the SNO sites are located within a hydrophobic pocket, which is also in agreement with the findings of Greco and colleagues [25], who found that most of the 18 SNO sites they analyzed were located in hydrophobic pockets.
The condensin I subunits whose distribution we have analyzed are located at the inner region of the condensed chromatids during both meiotic divisions, as occurs in mitotic Xenopus, mammalian, plant, chicken and Drosophila chromosomes ([6], [8], [9], [15], [20], [26], [28], [39], [40]).
The 4 ROIs analyzed were located according to Forrest et al. (2006), except for 1 correction.
None of the positions analyzed were located in homopolymer tracts of > 5 bps (Additional file 6).
We also show that the core constituents of the SOS response in all the groups analyzed are located systematically in the large chromosome, indicating that the SOS response is a fundamental component of these genomes.
Overall, 102 of the orthologs analyzed were located in the 6 Salmonella pathogenicity islands [ 53, 54]; genes in the pathogenicity islands were not significantly overrepresented (P > 0.05; Fisher's exact test) among the genes with evidence for positive selection.
Our BLAST results showed that the CRY1-b1 gene fragment that we analyzed was located between the first domain (DNA photolyase) and the beginning of second domain (FAD domain) of the SbCRY1 gene.
The I7T polymorphism analyzed in this study is located in the cytb protein subunit.
The majority of genes analyzed in our study is located on different chromosomes (apart from SFRS1 and SFRS2 that are located on chromosome 17), thus this effect is rather not responsible for the observed changes.
We assume that all earthquakes analyzed in this study are located in the subducting crust.
