Angela A. Garibaldi Week 8

Retrieving Protein Sequences

1. Go to UniProt [www.expasy.org/sprot UniProt]
2. Enter dUTPase in search window. This produces more than 3 relevant sequences, so found DUT ECOLI (P06968) on page 4
3. Scroll down for FASTA format of amino acid sequences

• In the case that your beginning information is not enough to find the protein sequence you seek,

1. find the advanced search option. This no longer exists. You have to click the add and search button and a drop down menu will be displayed to give you the same search options as described in Figure 2-16 of the Bioinformatics for Dummeies

Retrieving a List of Related Protein Sequences

1. Go to the Advanced Search UniProt as described above
