Where/How Do I get Proteins?
Goal
Sometimes you need the code of a protein, or of several proteins to play with. This lab shows you how you can get a protein, or homologue sequences from various species from the NCBI site.
Steps
- Point your browser to the URL www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
- In the menu bar, enter protein, as shown in the figure below
- Enter the name of a protein family, say "e-coli". You can find more on Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_proteins)
- Select Fasta for the Display mode
- Get your sequences:
