Fig. 10From: Computational modelling of chromosomally clustering protein domains in bacteriaSchematic representation of the method utilised to measure chromosomal distances of pairs of domains. This method was used to measure the chromosomal distance \(\text{dist}_{(a,b)}^{(i)}\), expressed in number of base pairs, between two domain coding regions a and b on a circular chromosome i of length \(L^{(i)}\). The final value of \(\text{dist}_{(a,b)}^{(i)}\) was chosen as the smallest distance measured by travelling the chromosome either clockwise or anti-clockwiseBack to article page
