Preliminary Flowchart for Functional Genomics ORF Bioinformatics pipeline Are there biological predictions? Yes No Is the gene lethal ? • PCR • Clone in E. coli. Yes Generate Hypothesis Store Data Are there orthologesin genetically-established bacterium? No No Yes • Express • Purify • Crystallize Other tests? Generate Deletion mutation
