Abstract
Wereport recent results of statistical analysis of DNA sequencesin this paper. First, we show howrepetitive segments reduce the information content measured by Shannon entropies. Then, the effect of a nonuniform codon usage on the mutual information function is studied analytically. For this purpose, the concept of pseudo-exons is introduced. Finally, we discuss the modularity of DNA which can serve as a sensitive tool to distinguish DNA sequences from randomstrings.
