Characterisation of inactivation domains and evolutionary strata in human X chromosome through Markov segmentation.

Markov segmentation is a method of identifying compositionally different subsequences in a given symbolic sequence. We have applied this technique to the DNA sequence of the human X chromosome to analyze its compositional structure. The human X chromosome is known to have acquired DNA through distin...
