Question

some one please help!

Go to the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) http://www.yeastgenome.org] and view the sequence genome browser. Place cursor on genome position and drag to the 70,000 to 100,000 bp region. You can also move around the genome using the arrows. 6 pts a) What is the longest gene seen in this region: i. It's length: ii. Genome position: iii. Gene function: b) What is the shortest gene in this region: i. It's length: ii. Genome position: iii. Gene function: e) How many "dubious open reading frames" do you see in this region. List them here: 2 pts

Explanation / Answer

a. Longest gene in this region is

M4O4

Length : 4416 bp

Genome location : 87855-92270 bp. Located on negative strand

b. Shortest gene

YAL037C-A

Length: 93 bp

Location: 73426:73518 . Located on negative strand

Function : unknown

c. Dubious open reading frame are those which do not code for functional protein. In the given region, 4 such open reading frames are present.

These are

YAL037C-B

YAL031W-A

YAL034C-A

YAL026C-A
