Protein interaction maps for complete genomes based on gene fusion events
Article Abstract:
A method to identify gene-fusion events in complete genomes is presented, based on sequence comparison. 215 genes or proteins in the complete genomes of Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae and Methanococcus jannaschii were found to participate in 64 unique fusion events. The method can also be applied to genes of unknown function.
