Bioinformatics HW#6

1. Please find the gene for the lipid transfer protein that you showed the structures in homework 5

Hordeum vulgare gene for LTP 1
Sequence ID: X60292 NID: g19038

2. How many sequences of DNA and Protein have been known for barley?

Hordeum vulgare (Taxonomy Id: 4513, preferred common name: barley)
DNA sequences: 1719
Protein sequence: 1459

3. How many BLAST hits you can get if you use the gene you found for this protein as the query sequence to search against non-redundant GenBank + EMBL + DDBJ + PDB sequence database? Please also show 10 sequences that produce significant alignments (you just need to show their names and ID numbers).

Total 60 BLAST hits! (search results)
