A statistical analysis of the three-fold evolution of genomic compression through frame overlaps in prokaryotes
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Among microbial genomes, genetic information is frequently compressed, exploiting redundancies in the genetic code in order to store information in overlapping genes. We investigate the length, phase and orientation properties of ove...
