Today in class, we shared group findings from January 28, 2016:

1. Blast the overrepresented sequences

  • Blast groups found mostly mitochondrial or ribosomal genes.
  • Intestine blast group found an amino transferase gene that may be of interest later.
  • Liver blast group found an anti-hemorage gene that may be of interest later.


2. Attempt to access the list of genes (SRP-0151827) mentioned in the Andrew et al. (2015) study

  • We can blast our sequences against the Andrew et al. (2015) library.
  • We have the potential to download the entire library with instructions on the website, but do not understand how to use the software/programs required to do so.
  • We found a toolkit that allows us to download one sequence at a time.
  • We can blast within a run.


3. Add numbers to label proteins of "unknown function" in our reads

  • Dylan and Dustin made a file that removed duplicate names from our runs.
  • Dr. Campbell and Dr. Heyer used their file and got gene mapping results!


4.Normalize relative abundance of transcripts

  • We used DEseq to normalize data.
  • Data can be normalized using a total read count (TC) normalization.
