LGT3State 20081223 – Detect LGT (swapping) of two non-homologous Enzymes

LGT3State 20081223

:: DESCRIPTION

LGT3State is a program for inferring lateral gene transfer (LGT) in cases where there are two non-homologous genes, where each gene performs the same function (which is essential to the cell). Thus, there are three states which may characterize an organism: (a) it encodes gene A, (b) it encodes gene B, (c), it encodes both genes A and B.
