I. Basic Information

A. Your name 
II. Search for FMRP in Drosophila (old business)

A. How far have you gotten in the tour?  

B. Have you resolved the paradox that ends the tour?
    (Why one blast yields good hits in Drosophila while the other yields nothing?)

Other comments, questions, concerns regarding using NCBI, blast, etc?
     

III. Loops (old business)

A. How far have you gotten in the notes Elements of a loop, including (as always) EXPLORING the examples?
     

B. Choose up to three study questions/scenarios that you would most like discussed in class:

Loops SQ1  Loops SQ2  Loops SQ3  Loops SQ4  Loops SQ5  Loops SQ6  Loops SQ7  Loops SQ8 

Any comments, questions, or concerns thus far regarding mapping and loops?
     

IV. Edwards & Rohwer (2005)

A. Choose study questions that you would most like discussed in class:

SQ1  SQ2  SQ3  SQ4  SQ5  SQ6  SQ7  SQ8  SQ9  SQ10  SQ11  SQ12  SQ13 

Perhaps the following will inspire you to comment in the box below:

  • The difference between metagenome sequencing and conventional sequencing (e.g. sequencing of the Drosophila genome)?
  • The need for metagenome sequencing?
  • Extracting information from Figure 1 of the article?
  • Interpretting Figure 2 of the article?
  • The notion of a prophage?
     
V. Miscellaneous

Put here any miscellaneous comments, questions, suggestions, concerns you may have.
     

Thanks!
