Abstract excerpt
The local density of gene structures and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) along human chromosomes appears inhomogeneous. In chromosome 1, the density patterns from both these elements are shown here to exhibit similar scale invariant clustering, as well as long-ranged and scale invariant auto- and cross-correlations. The local densities of these elements sites can be accurately represented by the scale...
