Abstract:A complex multidimensional DNA structure is obtained when treating the elements of the Eco RI restriction set of buffalo rat as a cascade of self-similar units. Fifteen of the 16 (about 94%) Eco RI repeat families, ranging in length from 2300 to 83 nucleotides and in frequency from 500 to >lo6 units, are sorted into a three-tiered well-ordered fractaliFibonacci lattice. On the first level, 11 fractal dimensions are defined as unique collinear collections of repeat DNA families in a "graph-invariant'' plot of l… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
