👉 In computational biology, a "biosatellite" is a group of genes that are located within a single chromosome and share similar regulatory regions. These genes play crucial roles in gene regulation, expression, and protein synthesis, making them important for understanding the genetic basis of complex biological processes. Biosatellites can be classified based on their location within the genome: they may be found on the short arm of chromosome 1 (SIRC), on the long arm of chromosome 22 (LARC
