Abstract

Understanding the knowledge accumulated in a large sequence data has become an increasingly important research. The focus of this study is to create position specific scoring matrices (PSMM) for biological sequences called promoter sequences and apply fractal measure called 'lacunarity' to find the similarity existing between them. For the experiments, the promoter data created exclusively for this study using the NCBI database is used. The promoters of length 500bps of the enzyme pyruvate kinase from the glycolysis pathway in different organisms is considered because of its universal presence. The results show high similarity between the organisms belonging to the same family. From this study lacunarity analysis seems to be a very powerful measure to interpret the similarity between promoter sequences across the species.
