However, we report here on the existence of a high-level\u00a0compositional organization of isochores in the human genome. By using a segmentation algorithm incorporating\u00a0the long-range correlations existing in human DNA, we find that every chromosome is composed of a few\u00a0huge segments (~10^7\u00a0bp) of relatively homogeneous G+C content, which become the largest compositional\u00a0organization of the genome. Finally, we show evidence of the biological relevance of these superstructures,\u00a0pointing to a large-scale functional organization of the human genome.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supplementary web page for the paper: Pedro Carpena, Jos\u00e9 L.
