ILT1/YDR090C Week 3
Contents
"Our Favorite Gene": ILT1/YDR090C
Gene ILT1 / YDR090C, part of the Saccharomyces Cerevisiae family, is an integral membrane protein (IMP) located on Chromosome IV on the reverse strand that has an unknown molecular function and biological process. It has a molecular weight of 34626.8 Da and an amino acid length of 310. It's primary transcript is YDR090C_mRNA, although much like it's function, information on this gene is unknown/assumed.

What is the protein sequence corresponding to your gene?
- Frame 1, located in the image, is the protein sequence that corresponds to the gene.
What is the function of your gene?
- The function of this gene is unknown. Information on this gene is putative.
What was different about the information provided about your gene in each of the parent databases? Were there differences in content, the information or data itself? Were there differences in presentation of the information? Why did you choose your particular gene? i.e., why is it interesting to you and your partner?
- This particular gene was chosen because much of its information has yet to be discovered. It is a protein with unknown function and very few research has been conducted and found on this gene. This sparked interest to us because it highlighted the very point of science and why we are biology majors: to discover (using research and evidence) to further identify and/or understand a distinct mechanism, organism, and/or gene.
Images
Include an image related to your gene (be careful that you do not violate any copyright restrictions!) Please make the image something scientific (not like the random images seen on the SGD blog posts). If a 3D structure of the protein your gene encodes is available, you can choose to embed a rotating image of the structure on your page using the FirstGlance in Jmol software. This is optional, a different static image would be OK, too.
