GaussianCpG: a Gaussian model for detection of CpG island in human genome sequences (open access)

GaussianCpG: a Gaussian model for detection of CpG island in human genome sequences

The article discusses crucial markers in identifying biological elements and processes in mammalian genomes, CpG islands (CGI) that play important roles in DNA methylation, gene regulation, epigenetic inheritance, gene mutation, chromosome inactivation and nuclesome retention. A novel Gaussian model, GaussianCpG, is developed for detection of CpG islands on human genome. Their Gaussian model aims to simplify the complex interaction between nucleotides.
