In a genome-wide scan study, a large proportion of the genotyped markers fall into intergenic regions, and are likely to be not relevant for association studies.

In that context, one can wonder to which extent the biases observed in intergenic regions may result from the possible presence of still undetected genes. Two pieces of evidence argue against this eventuality. First, we have been... 

Figure 17. Mean skew profile of intergenic regions around putative replication origins [38]. The skew S was calculated in 1 kbp windows (Watson strand) around the position ( 300 kbp without repeats) of the 1012 detected upward jumps 5 and 3 transcript extremities were extended by 0.5 and 2 kbp, respectively ( ), or by 10 kbp at both ends ( ). The abscissa represents the distance (in kbp) to the corresponding origin the ordinate represents the skews calculated for the windows situated in intergenic regions (mean values for all discontinuities and for 10 consecutive 1-kbp window positions). The skews are given in percent (vertical bars, SEM). The lines correspond to linear fits of the values of the skew ( ) for n < —100 kbp and n > 100 kbp.

Cellular DNA contains genes and intergenic regions, both of which may serve functions vital to the cell. The more complex genomes, such as those of eukaryotic cells, demand increased levels of chromosomal organization, and this is reflected in the chromosome s structural features. We begin by considering the different types of DNA sequences and structural elements within chromosomes. 

After the formation of the RF, the bacteriophage-encoded gp2 cleaves the positive strand within the intergenic region, which rolls off from the negative strand. During this process, both strands are again replicated to produce double-stranded RFs. This type of replication, known as the rolling circle...
