HOMEWORK 6  



 
1. Please find the gene for the lipid transfer protein that you showed the structures in homework 5.

  X59253
  H.vulgare rearranged Ltp1 gene for lipid transfer protein
  gi|19036|emb|X59253.1|HVLTP1 [19036]
  see genebank report

2. How many sequences of DNA and Protein have been known for barley?
   DNA 1719
   Protein 1459
   see taxonomy report

3. How many BLAST hits you can get if you use the gene you found for this protein as the query sequence to search against non-redundant GenBank + EMBL + DDBJ + PDB sequence database? Please also show 10 sequences that produce significant alignments ( you just need to show their names and ID numbers ).

    47 blast hits
