[BiO BB] A tool for gene identification..

[Ryan Golhar]

Did you BLAST your sequence against the human genome, or just (human)
genes?  BLAST should do this for you if you are using the correct
database.  The output (and MapViewer) will then tell you what chomosome
its on and everything in the surrounding area.

Subject: [BiO BB] A tool for gene identification..


Dear colleagues,
Our lab isolated a 196 bp fragment from humans  from more than one cell
type ( part of a gene that is an oncogene for cancer). Conducting BLAST
searches of all types resulted in no homology to any published human
gene.  Is there some tool that can identify the human genome to:
1) locate on which chromosome is this sequence?
2) enable us to get the rest of the sequence of that gene?
3)  predict this gene based on the sequence submitted?
 
Your help is very highhly appreciated.
Thanks,

Mahmoud
