On Deriving Synteny Blocks by Compacting Elements
2025-12-17
Abstract excerpt
Genomic rearrangements are major drivers of evolution and genetic disease. However, studying rearrangements requires segmenting the genomes of interest into conserved regions, called synteny blocks, that highlight structural differences between genomes. Synteny blocks are typically defined from annotated genes or derived as a by-product of whole-genome alignments. As these procedures are heuristic and do not expli...
