RESUMO

Analysis of DNA sequences of the human chromosomes 21 and 22 performed using a specially designed MegaGene software allowed us to obtain the following results. Purine and pyrimidine nucleotide residues are unevenly distributed along both chromosomes, displaying maxima and minima (Y waves phi) with a period of about 3 Mbp. Distribution of G + C along both chromosomes has no distinct maxima and minima, however, chromosome 21 contains considerably less G + C than chromosome 22. Both exons and Alu repeats are unevenly distributed along chromosome 21: they are scarce in its left part and abundant in the right part, while MIR elements are quite monotonously spread along this chromosome. The Alu repeats show a wave-like distribution pattern similar for both repeat orientations. The number of the Alu repeats of opposite orientations was equal for both studied chromosomes, and this may be considered a new property of the human genome. The positive correlation between the exon and Alu distribution patterns along the chromosome, the concurrent distribution of Alu repeats in both orientations along the chromosome, and the equal copy numbers for Alu in direct and inverted orientations within an individual chromosome point to their important role in the human genome, and do not fit the notion that Alu repeats belong to parasitic (junk) DNA.
