About this Class
Due to the weather related shutdown of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT (NIH) this seminar has been POSTPONED ... we will attempt to reschedule at a later date. (10-30-2012)
Topics to be covered
I. Genomic and transcript related information
- chromosome location
- genomic, mRNA and protein sequence
- alternative splice products and gene structure (exon-intron locations)
- primers specific for the gene and spliced product
- SNPs in the gene and which ones are known to be associated with a phenotype
II. Publications
- publications documenting experiments that add to our understanding of the HRAS gene
III. Protein related information
- protein function
- pathways and downloading all genes in that pathway
IV. Regulation of expression
- known transcription factor binding sites
