Identification and Application of Biological Repetitive Sequences

Repetitive sequences are abundant in both genomes and proteins. Identification and application of such biological repetitive sequences are important in Biology for at least two reasons. First, repetitive sequences play important roles in evolution. Second, they present difficulties to genome/protein analyses such as genome assembly and sequence alignment. The exciting related research projects that we have done or have been working on include
