This was created in response to a member mentioning their students really struggled with the genomic neighborhood and the member didn’t realize until they were already too far into the annotation to correct their misconceptions. This is meant to be a quick in-class and/or homework assignment.
This series of videos is intended to help GEP students annotate a Pathways Project gene from start to finish.
The Pathways Project is focused on annotating genes found in well characterized signaling and metabolic pathways across the Drosophila genus. This walkthrough illustrates how to apply the GEP annotation strategy for the Pathways Project to construct a gene model for the Ras homolog enriched in brain (Rheb) gene in Drosophila yakuba.
A one-page summary of the logic process used to determine if genes in a fosmid are syntenic with respect to D. melanogaster
Lecture is designed to introduce students to the big picture of the Pathways Project.
