1. What is the function of your gene?
2. 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?
3. Why did you choose your particular gene? i.e., why is it interesting to you and your partner?
   • Hailey’s research in Dr. Sarah Mitchell’s lab at LMU studies IMD3’s RNA binding function in yeast.
4. 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.
   • The NCBI Structure database and RSCB Protein Databank also display structures.
