APRIL 1ST AND 2ND-LABS
- APRIL 1ST 2019
- OBJECTIVE:
- To make sure all are prepared for poster presentations, and can answer questions on the poster
- PROCEDURE:
- Students went up to the poster and presented to the class in their groups
- People asked questions and proper answers were generated
- RESULTS:
- N/A
- CONCLUSION:
- Students were prepared to present and answer questions on the poster
- FUTURE STEPS:
- Formally present the poster at URSA scholars week, and continue working on in depend project
- APRIL 3RD 2019
- OBJECTIVE:
- To create a timeline for independent projects
- PROCEDURE:
- A google docs was shared where group members added information to create a timeline of project
- Phamerator was looked at to determine what specific genes the group wanted to look into
- RESULTS:
- 4/8 : Determine protein structure of gene 62, and see how it interacts with upstream gene 59
- 4/10: look at synteny and try to come up with a method of representation for synteny of other clusters for gene 62
- 4/15: Have evidence to show the types of modules in Napoleon/AM cluster. Make setup for presentation, have background rough draft.
- 4/17, 19: Start constructing basic outline presentation, look into evidence for gene function in the different types of module. Start on Methods and figures.
- 4/22: Organize database of collected evidence for each gene in each module. Began constructing Results. Ensure phylogenetic tree is accurate and well made.
- 4/24 Continue collection of evidence for module 1, 2,
- 4/29 Finish final touches on presentation, and be able to flawlessly run through the presentation
- 5/1- Practice Presentations
- 59 gene interaction: using raptor x, no correlation
- Bing, clustered in BI1:
- 60: transmembrane protein matches own cluster, BI
- Newly identified, used to calculate it can fit inside the membrane
- Used synteny phage Camille, and other EL phages that have the same membrane protein.
- CONCLUSION:
- A timeline was made and there will be further investigation into gene 59 of Napoleon B
- FUTURE STEPS:
- To analyze proteins made by gene 59 in AM cluster
- Continue to read primary literature
