Question

6. Provide the reference (in proper reference form: Author; Year; Title; Journal Name; Volume; Page Numbers) for a recent publication involving the identified gene. This reference should NOT be a web page reference.

7. Are there homologues for the identified gene in other systems? Identify one homologue in a invertebrate system (if there is none, provide a vertebrate homologue).

8. What is the function (e.g. transcriptional regulation, transmembrane signaling, kinase, protease etc.) of the protein(s) encoded by the gene.

9. Generate a protein sequence alignment for one of the identified putative protein products with at least one similar invertebrate protein (if there is none, use a vertebrate homologue). 1

0. Generate a secondary structure prediction for one identified protein.
