Konsensus-sekvenser for ekson/intron-overganger
Forskjellige klasser av eksoner som må oppdages på forskjellige måter
Innledende eksoner: Begynner med et startkodon og slutter med et spleisedonorsete
Interne eksoner: Begynner med et akseptorsete og slutter med et donorsete
Terminale eksoner: Begynner med et akseptorsete og slutter med et stoppkodon
Enkelteksongener: Begynner med et startkodon og slutter med et stoppkodon

Neuronnettverk: et eksempel
The Grail II system for finding exons in eukaryotic genes (Uberbacher and Mural 1991; Uberbacher et al. 1996). The method uses a neural network to identify patterns characteristic of coding sequences. The network includes three layers, an input layer for the data with the data coming from a candidate exon sequence, and a hidden layer for discerning relationships among the input data. An output layer comprising one neuron indicates whether or not the region is likely to be an exon. Each neuron receives information from a set in the layer above, some
with a positive value and others with a negative value; sums these values; and then converts them to an output of approximately 0 or 1.
The system is trained using a set of known coding sequences, and as each sequence is utilized, the strengths and types of connections (positive or negative) between the neurons are adjusted, decreasing or increasing the signal to the next neuron in a manner that produces the correct output. The major difference between neural networks for exon and secondary structure prediction is that the exon prediction uses sequence pattern information as input whereas secondary structure prediction uses a window of amino acid sequence in the protein. In Grail II, a candidate sequence is evaluated by calculating pattern frequencies in the sequence and applying these values to the neural network. If the output is close to a value of 1, then the region is predicted to be an exon.
