Genomic sequence is commonly known as the “blueprint of life” but deciphering this blueprint has proven to be difficult and elusive. The first task to deciphering this code is sequence analysis, resulting in an annotated sequence. This annotated sequence represents the feature composition of this sequence, or commonly known as sequence composition. In this article, we will examine some of the available tools to identify various DNA sequence features, before reviewing recent studies on the application of sequence composition. Through these applications, we can appreciate that sequence composition is an integral aspect of sequence analysis.
