Estimating the Number of Mouse Genes and the Duplicated Regions
... To estimate the number of mouse genes, we adopted the method reported by Ewing and Green (2000). The method involves determining the overlap between two independently derived sets of gene sequences. The first set should contain full-length sequences for an unbiased sample of genes from the genome. T ...

Transcription and Translation
... Unlike replication, transcription does not need to build on a primer. Instead, transcription starts at a region of DNA called a “promoter”. For proteincoding genes, the promoter is located a few bases 5’ to (upstream from) the first base that is transcribed into RNA. Promoter sequences are very simi ...
