CSC334 Lab5
Finding Repeats using a Web-Based Repeat Finder
In this lab we perform a similar operation as the one we did in CSC334_Lab4, but this time using a Web service.
Make sure you have a FASTA sequence available, and follow these steps
- Point your browser to the Molecular Toolkit at Colorado State U.
- Select the Dot Plot option
- Enter your favorite DNA sequence in the left text area, and click on Copy DNA1->DNA2
- Select window sizes that are odd number, and generate different plots. Observe that you observe similar data as what you obtained in Lab #4 if you did this lab.
- Click on the segments in the dot plot, and observe that you can get some idea of the location of the repeating segment's locations in the DNA sequence
