Table 1 Summery of the different quantitative features used by ContDist.
From: ContDist: a tool for the analysis of quantitative gene and promoter properties
Feature group | Features |
|---|---|
Physical properties of DNA and chromatin | Helical deformations, predictions of methylation state |
Base composition | G+C content, density of dinucleotides |
Evolution | SNPs from dbSNP, and Substitution rates (Ka, Ks, Knr, Knc, Ka/Ks, etc) |
General gene/protein properties | PPI, codon bias, gene structure |
Overlap with genomic elements | Repetitive elements, PhastCons, CpG islands |
Gene expression | Expression values form gene atlas, expression breath, maximum and average expression |
