5A bioinformatician is analyzing a genome sequence and identifies 1200 potential gene regions. After applying a filtering algorithm, 25% of the regions are eliminated, and then a second algorithm removes an additional 20% of the remaining regions. How many gene regions remain after both filters?

Title: Streamlining Genome Analysis: How 5A Bioinformaticians Reduce Genome Regions Using Computational Filters In the rapidly evolving field of genomics, interpreting vast genome sequence data is a complex challenge. Take, for example, 5A bioinformaticians who recently analyzed a human genome sequence and identified 1,200 potential gene regions—promising starting points for further biological study. However, with millions of DNA sequences to sift through, efficient filtering is essential to focus only on the most biologically relevant candidates. This article explores how a two-step computational filtering process dramatically narrows down potential gene regions, improving research precision and efficiency. ### Starting Point: 1,200 Potential Gene Regions
The analysis begins with 1,200 raw gene region predictions derived from automated annotation tools. Identifying these regions is the crucial first step—but not all are valid candidates for functional roles.
