Is there replication-associated mutational pressure in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome?

Compositional bias of yeast chromosomes was analysed using detrended DNA walks. Unlike eubacterial chromosomes, the yeast chromosomes did not show the specific asymmetry correlated with origin and terminus of replication. It is probably a result of a relative excess of autonomously replicating sequences (ARS) and of random choice of these sequences in each replication cycle.

Nevertheless, the last ARS from both ends of chromosomes are responsible for unidirectional replication of subtelomeric sequences with pre-established leading/lagging roles of DNA strands. In these sequences a specific asymmetry is observed, resembling the asymmetry introduced by replication-associated mutational pressure into eubacterial chromosomes. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
