1. 1. Unsupervised hidden Markov model for automatic analysis of expressed sequence tags

   University essay from Bioinformatik

   Author : Andrei Alexsson; [2011]
   Keywords : Machine learning; Markov Model; Hidden Markov Model; Expressed sequence tag; EST; Baum-Welch; 1-best; Unsupervised; Supervised; GHMM;

   Abstract : This thesis provides an in-depth analyze of expressed sequence tags (EST) that represent pieces of eukaryotic mRNA by using unsupervised hidden Markov model (HMM). ESTs are short nucleotide sequences that are used primarily for rapid identificationof new genes with potential coding regions (CDS). READ MORE

3. 2. Identifying and analysing alternative splice variants by aligning ESTs and mRNAs to the genomic sequence

   University essay from Institutionen för kommunikation och information

   Author : Kristin Geirardsdottir; [2005]
   Keywords : Splice variants; alternative splicing; expressed sequence tags ESTs ; G protein-coupled receptors GPCRs ; adhesion GPCRs;

   Abstract : Questions have been raised about the genomic complexity of the human genome, since it was reported that it only consisted of 32,000 genes. Alternative splicing is considered the explanation of the enormous difference between the number of genes and the number of proteins. READ MORE
