Identifying Pathogenicity Islands in Bacterial Pathogenomics Using Computational Approaches

Identifying Pathogenicity Islands in Bacterial Pathogenomics Using Computational Approaches

High-throughput sequencing technologies have made it possible to study bacteria through analyzing their genome sequences. For instance, comparative genome sequence analyses can reveal the phenomenon such as gene loss, gene gain, or gene exchange in a genome. By analyzing pathogenic bacterial genomes...
