Before revision: We introduce methods that rapidly evaluate a battery of information-theoretic and algorithmic complexity measures on DNA sequences in application to potential binding sites for nucleosomes. The first application of this new tool demonstrates structure beyond GC content on DNA sequences in the context of nucleosome binding. We tested the measures on well-studied genomic sequences of size 20K and 100K bps .
After revision: We introduce methods that rapidly evaluate a battery of information-theoretic and algorithmic complexity nature applied to DNA sequences to identify their potential capabilities to determine nucleosomal binding sites. We test our measures on well-studied genomic sequences of size 20K and 100K bps .
