Take a look for yourself.
Now you're really flummoxed! How is it that searching for similar
sequences using your mystery DNA sequence yields no significant
similarity to lef but searching for protein sequences using your
translated sequence gives you perfect identity! Something must be
real funny with this sequence, so you put aside fancy computer programs
and just place your sequence next to the corresponding sequence
from lef, aligning them by hand.
At this point who knows what to expect? What you get is the alignment
shown here. |
