Significant Strands in E. Anophelis R26

Abstract

Our group was interested in looking at proteins in ElizabethkingiaAnophelisR26. We found a set of five genes that we thought worked together to create cell division. In order to find these genes we used theRastDatabase (2). Once we had located the genes of interest we looked at the table of fold changes provided by Dr. Canaan to see if they were actually being transcribed (3). The table showed that four of the five genes we were investigating had significant fold changes. We concluded that because of the number of transcriptions that the only gene that really had significant fold changes was that of gene 1548. Further studies would need to be conducted to verify whether or not the set of five genes are actually involved in cell division or not.
