A simple and general homology-based method for gene finding was applied to the 2.9-Mb Drosophila melanogaster Adh region, the target sequence of the Genome Annotation Assessment Project (GASP). Each strand of the entire sequence was used as query of the BLOCKS+ database of conserved regions of proteins. This led to functional assignments for more than one-third of the genes and two-thirds of the transposons. Considering the enormous size of the query, the fact that only two false-positive matche ...[more]
