AU Cluster Phage Start Codons (4/17/19)

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Rationale: 

Start Codons for each of the phages in the AU Cluster were collected, and saved on an Excel sheet.  

Tools: 

  • PhagesDB 
  • Excel 
  • DNA Master 

Procedure:  

  1. AQ Cluster phage FastA files were downloaded from PhagesDB, and opened in DNA Master.  
  2. Start codons were noted, and percent of each of the start codons were noted.  
  3. Abstract for the independent project was written and submitted.  

Results:  

Start Codons for CapnMurica:  

Conclusion:  

Similarities have been found within most of the phages in the cluster. Creating a phylogenetic tree may be useful to view these results, and to sub-cluster phages.  

Future Work:  

Since most of the data has been collected, a tree including all of the phages in the cluster will be made to possibly  sub-cluster these phages.
