Egypt's geological history has produced four major physical regions: the Nile Valley and Delta, the Western Desert (also known as the Libyan Desert), the Eastern Desert (also known as the Arabian Desert), and the Sinai Peninsula.
Abbreviation: Ks values. A synonymous mutation is a change in the DNA sequence that codes for amino acids in a protein sequence, but does not change the encoded amino acid. Due to the redundancy of the genetic code (multiple codons code for the same amino acid), these changes usually occur in the third position of a codon.
To examine the results that would be generated by other programs that calculate synonymousânon-synonymous mutation rates, users have the option of ignoring partial differences. There are two online implementations of Syn-SCAN.
