Exploring hierarchical and overlapping modular structure in the yeast protein interaction network.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Periodic spacing of A-tracts (short runs of A or T) with the DNA helical period of ~10-11 bp is characteristic of intrinsically bent DNA. In eukaryotes, the DNA bending is related to chromatin structure and nucleosome positioning. However, the physiological role of strong sequence periodicity detected in man...
