3. Locate introns
in your Paramecium PP2B sequences. You
will align the PP2B sequences and highlight the putative
introns. These were predicted using either software or by
a human using a few simple rules. We will discuss these
rules and look over the predicted introns. Our goal for
the first part of this course is to determine if the introns
predicted are really present. This is validating the predictions
with real bench science.

about alignments Alignments
are often done using alignment software such as ClustalW. ClustalW
is available as afree download, as a web-based tool and as
part of MacVector.

will help you understand how these programs work.
