Fast method of homology and purine-pyrimidine mutual relations between DNA sequences search.
A new algorithm for scanning sequences is described. This algorithm uses the boolean operators AND and OR. The mutual information between the sequences is used as a measure of sequence interrelation. It allows evaluation of the probability of accidental sequence interrelation in a quantitative manner. The proposed algorithm was used for searching for MB1 repeats in human and other mammalian sequences.
