Comparison of simple sequence repeats in 19 Archaea

S. Trivedi, Comparison of simple sequence repeats in 19 Archaea, vol. 5, pp. 741-772, 2006.

All organisms that have been studied until now have been found to have differential distribution of simple sequence repeats (SSRs), with more SSRs in intergenic than in coding sequences. SSR distribution was investigated in Archaea genomes where complete chromosome sequences of 19 Archaea were analyzed with the program SPUTNIK to find di- to penta-nucleotide repeats. The number of repeats was determined for the complete chromosome sequences and for the coding and non-coding sequences.
