Two Interrelated Modules on Bioinformatics Module 1: To show the ways in which the NCBI online database classifies and organizes information on DNA sequences, evolutionary relationships, and scientific publications. Module 2: To identify an unknown nucleotide sequence from the Wolbachia endosymbiont by using the NCBI search tool BLAST Teaching Time – 45 minutes
Advantages of BLAST No programming skills needed Familiarity with personal computer and internet browser Customizable and free
What are the broad goals of this lab? • To provide an introduction to bioinformatics (NCBI) • To introduce you to searching for articles, sequences, scientists (perhaps yourself) • To understand phylogenies • To put your Wolbachia research in the context of what has been published
What are the specific goals of this lab? • (Eventually) to look for brand new Wolbachia strains using new sequence data. • To be able to make a phylogenetic tree of Wolbachia spp. • To contribute to a national “student” sequence database on the genetic diversity of Wolbachia 16S rRNA gene • EXTENSION: • To compare the Wolbachia tree to an insect phylogeny to infer lateral vs. vertical transmission of your Wolbachia strains.
Wolbachia – Host Interactions:Mutualism and Reproductive Parasitism Required for insect oogenesis (Dedeine et al. 2001) Mutualism Parthenogenesisin wasps Reproductive parasitism Male-killing in insects Required for nematode fertility and larval development Feminization in isopods Cytoplasmic incompatibility in arthropods

BLAST: Interrogate a database for sequences homologous to an input (ie, query) sequence. • Compare new genes to old ones • Compare genes from different species or hosts • Identify possible functions based on similarities to known sequences.
