Separating the effects of mutation and selection in producing DNA skew in bacterial chromosomes.

BMC genomics - 12 Oct 2007

Morton Richard A, Morton Brian R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Many bacterial chromosomes display nucleotide asymmetry, or skew, between the leading and lagging strands of replication. Mutational differences between these strands result in an overall pattern of skew that is centered about the origin of replication. Such a pattern could also arise...
