Construction of stochastic context trees for genetic texts.

A method has been developed for constructing a tree source model for genetic text generation. Model visualisation in the form of suffix (context) trees provides a new way of context analysis of symbol sequences. Estimation of the stochastic complexity of the data in the frame of the model serves as a criterion for the model's ascertainment. The model and complexity values are used for analysis of genetic texts. The software realisation of this algorithm enables to reveal statistical properties of genetic sequences based on an information measure. The program developed is available via Internet at http://wwwmgs.bionet.nsc.ru/mgs/programs/complexity/.

Computer system "gene discovery" for promoter structure analysis.

This paper presents implementation of Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery techniques for searching for regularities in tables of context features of DNA sequences involved in regulation of transcription. The goal is to discover regularities that relate nucleotide sequences to the functional classes of these sequences. The search patterns for regularities have been constructed in the first-order logic augmented by probabilistic estimates. To this aim. the PC software system "Gene Discovery" has been designed. This system accepts molecular-genetical data retrieved from a database by using SQL queries. Nucleotide sequences of promoters of several functional systems were extracted from the TRRD database (http://wwwmgs.bionet.nsc.ru/mgs/gnw/trrd/) and analysed. The data include nucleotide sequences of erythroid-specific gene promoters, endocrine system gene promoters, promoter regions of the genes controlling cell cycle, promoter of genes regulating lipid metabolism, and muscle-specific gene promoters. Several regularities that relate the nucleotide sequences in the regulatory DNA and their location relative to the transcription start with each functional class have been found.
