For this gene mapping project, you will map the HBB hemoglobin,
beta (Homo sapiens) gene with Gene ID: 3043. In order to map the
gene and obtain information about the gene, you will need to find
the following information:

● chromosome location, i.e., 2p3.4

● RefSeq associated with the chromosome

● base pair location within the RefSeq

● identify three missense SNPs, by rs #

● using the SNPs identified, describe the allelic variation,
amino acid variation, and the chromosome position of the SNP

● finally, describe how these SNPs alter the function of HBB

Do not cut and paste your database results to report your
findings. Write two to three paragraphs reporting the information
you have obtained about this gene. Imagine this is a report you
will present to an employer or a group of researchers interested in
this particular gene. PAPER LENGTH: 2-3 pages should be sufficient,
including References Cited.

2.Protein Characterization Assignment

For the protein characterization project, you will characterize
a protein kinase (Homo sapiens), GenBank accession AAA58363. In
order to characterize the protein, you will need to obtain the
following information:

● length of the amino acid sequence

● function of the protein

● RefSeq for the mRNA sequence

● identify conserved domains, name, and location by amino acid
number

● name one protein that interacts with this protein kinase, and
describe the interaction

Do not cut and paste your database results to report your
findings. Write two to three paragraphs reporting the information
you have obtained about this protein. Write 2 -3 pages reporting
the information you have obtained. Imagine this is a report you
will present to an employer or a group of researchers interested in
this particular protein.
