COURSE OF BIOINFORMATICS 2013-2014 Exam_31/01/2014 B Insert the requested information: • Name and Surname: • Matricula Number: • E-mail address: (I will contact you at this address!!) Human ATP2B3 gene Slide 1 remember to annotate the source of the information 1. Report the Gene_ID, the chromosomal and genomic (in bp) localization of the human ATP2B3 gene 2. How many different transcript isoforms exist for the ATP2B3 gene? Where are the differences among the different isoforms located? 3. Is the ATP2B3 gene involved in the etiology of any disorders? If yes, annotate disorder name and corresponding MIM number 4. Which are the genes contained in the genomic region spanning 50 kb upstream and 50 kb downstream to the ATP2B3 gene? Is there any difference between RefSeq genes and UCSC genes?Annotate the official Gene symbols and the Gene_IDs of RefSeq genes in the region. Slide 2 remember to annotate the source of the information 5. In the genomic region previously defined, could you find a SNP identified through a GWAS study? Report the ID of the SNP and the disease to which it was associated. 6. In the same genomic region, is there any evidence of the presence of other SNPs reported in the literature? In your opinion, is there any evidence that the SNPs you have identified are correlated to the ATP2B3 gene? 5. Report the Accession code of the reviewed ATP2B3 protein. Which protein domains, if any, are reported and where are they localized? 6. Could you find a murine homologue of the human ATP2B3 gene? Annotate its GeneID and its genomic location. Slide 3 remember to annotate the source of the information 9. Do a comparison between the ATP2B3 protein sequences encoded respectively by the human and the rat genes. Report the percentage of identities and of positives. Do the same between the human and the Neurospora crassa proteins. 9. Do a Multiple Sequence Alignment (suggestion: use ClustalW2) with the human, rat and Neurospora protein sequences. In your opinion, the N-terminal and the C-terminal portion of the three proteins show the same level of homology? Please, make your comment about the obtained alignment. Slide 4 remember to annotate the source of the information 11. Using the Gene Ontology database could you infer the cellular component, the biological process and the molecular function of ATP2B3 gene? Recontruct the ontology of the GO terms in each of the three categories in which the ATP2B3 gene is annotated. Slide 5 remember to annotate the source of the information 12. In the ATP2B3 3’ UTR, can you recognize any miRNAs binding sites predicted by at least two different algorithms? Annotate names, binding site position and the accession codes for some of the predicted miRNA.
