Abstract: Currently, operon prediction is based on the distance of neighboring genes on the functional relationships of their products that encode proteins in a given nucleotide sequence, or on ORF distances. This study deals with the design of a new function that detects operon structures based on information from gene expression or alternatively in combination with previous information from current online available tools. The function was implemented in Python language and tested on Clostridium beijerinckii NRRL B-598. This bacterium has huge potential in biotechnology and research due to its fermentation product, butanol.
Keywords: Gene expression information, Transcription unit, Correlation coefficient, Clostridium beijerinckii
