Abstract excerpt
To understand the fundamental processes of gene evolution such as the impact of point mutations and segmental duplications on statistical topography, superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) orthologous sequences (n = 50) are studied. These demonstrate scale invariant self-similarity patterns and long-range correlations (LRCs) indicating fractal organization. Phylogenetic hierarchies change when SOD1 orthologs are grouped...
