Abstract:
The main contribution of this work is a novel numerical characterization of a DNA sequence
based on the 2-D graphical representation of DNA introduced by Yau et al. [12].
We construct a 3-tuple of the normalized leading eigenvalues of the Q matrices associated
with the three characteristic curves of a DNA sequence. The approach is illustrated with
an examination of dissimilarities of exon-1 of beta-globin gene of 11 species.
