Students can apply what they learned in the Pathways Project: Annotation Walkthrough to construct a gene model for Rheb in D. pseudoobscura by completing the Pathways Project: Annotation Notebook. An answer key is provided to assist in checking the accuracy of the annotation and includes potential areas of confusion throughout.
The Pathways Annotation Notebook will help GEP students keep track of their work as they are annotating, and then they can use the notebook to fill out the report form. This notebook does not have to be submitted to GEP, it’s just an extra resource students might find helpful.
This workflow provides an overview of the key steps and recommended search parameters for the annotation of transcription start sites.
This document describes the primary annotation goals to be included in the final oral presentation and written report for students enrolled in the Bio4342 course at WU.
This PowerPoint presentation describes the common errors observed in student annotations.
This presentation illustrates the unusual genomic features that GEP students have encountered as part of their annotation of Muller F Elements from Drosophila ananassae and D. bipectinata. The Muller F Elements in these two species have undergone substantial expansion compared to D. melanogaster. The presentation describes the basic strategy for identifying pseudogenes, retrogenes, partial gene duplications, pseudogene clusters, and nuclear mitochondrial DNA segments (NUMT) within these F Element annotation projects.
Developed by Dr. Nick Reeves, this PowerPoint presentation describes the implementation of the GEP curriculum materials at Mt. San Jacinto Community College.
Developed by Dr. Nick Reeves at Mt. San Jacinto College, Menifee Valley Campus, this PowerPoint presentation provides a brief overview of the Digital Lab Notebook, which provides detailed guidance to students on the GEP annotation strategy.
This document illustrates how the strategies outlined in the Annotation Instruction Sheet can be applied to more challenging annotation cases.
This document is a more in depth description of the evidence based annotation technique used by the GEP. This document is designed to complement and extend the basic technique described in the Annotation for D. virilis PowerPoint.
