Gene Distribution on Human Chromosomes
View through CrossRef
Abstract
The distribution of genes in the human genome is strikingly nonuniform. Gene density is very high in GC‐rich isochores and very low in GC‐poor isochores (isochores are long DNA regions characterized by a fairly homogeneous GC level). Since GC‐rich and GC‐poor isochores can be localized on human chromosomes, this ‘chromosomal compositional mapping’ provides information on the distribution of genes on chromosomes.
