Commonly employed digital signal processing methodologies lack fundamental genetic code context of nucleotides since these approaches treat DNA signal as normal digital signal that could be processed by traditional DSP tools and techniques. This paper reviews the prevailing approaches for protein coding regions identification that base on common DSP concepts and highlights the importance of genetic code context to be considered for any computational solution for protein coding regions identification. Nucleotides in a DNA signal carry certain natural characteristics i.e. presence in a distinctive triplet format, maintaining distinct structure, owning and further sharing distribution of densities in codons, fuzzy behaviors, semantic similarities, unbalanced nucleotides� distribution producing a relatively high bias for nucleotides� usage in coding regions etc. The computational solutions for protein coding regions identification that exploit these fundamental characteristic of nucleotides can significantly suppress the signal noise and hence can better contribute in identification. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd date: 2017 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85009382823&doi=10.1016%2fj.bspc.2017.01.004&partnerID=40&md5=51c5c9971586722bc8bac4fd29a6547b id_number: 10.1016/j.bspc.2017.01.004 full_text_status: none publication: Biomedical Signal Processing and Control volume: 34 pagerange: 44-63 refereed: TRUE issn: 17468094 citation: Ahmad, M. and Jung, L.T. and Bhuiyan, A.-A.
