Since the beginning of time, woman (being human) has tried to make order and sense out of her surroundings. Gene annotation and analysis is just a primal instinct to make order.
Young children, as they prepare to enter school, are tested to see if they are ready by recognizing patterns, a form of making order.

Remember, everything you need to know, you learned in kindergarten….
It is all about finding the patterns…

Remember, you are working in the putative gene world. All gene predictions are made with the best evidence to date. Most of that evidence is computational (bioinformatic), not experimental. Tomorrow’s data may give us better evidence, but your prediction today is the best it can be … today! Make good predictions following a consistent approach. Let these predictions lead to experimentation that can provide the evidence to improve future predictions.

How many ATCGS are in a typical mycobacteriophage genome?
On average 70,000 base-pairsRange 40,000 to 165,000 bps
What is the universal format for a sequence?
FASTA

How do you make sense of the ATCGs?
Convert to genes
How do you convert ATCGs to Genes?
Codons Code for Amino Acids, Starts, Stops

• Phages use the Bacterial Plastic code (NCBI: Table 11)
• 3 startsoATG (methionine)oGTG (valine)oTTG (leucine)• 3 stops (TAA, TAG, TGA)• Space in-between: Open

• We use 2 programs, Glimmer and GeneMark, to identify coding potential.
• We can use Phamerator output for quick visual representation of gene and nucleotide similarity
• We can:– Add a gene– Delete a gene– Change a gene start
• What is the supporting data?

Things to do often:
• Save .dnam5 file often• Save .dnam5 file as a new name. (Then don’t
save the old named one.)
