Presented by Sonia Sharma BNFO 301 Locating the Repressor Binding Sites in the Bacteriophages
Repressors What are They Bacteriophages when infecting the Bacteria have to make an important decision CONFIDENTIAL
If Life is bestowed • Lytic promoters have to be silenced • Repressors come to limelight to do their job • They Block the promoter’s sites for lytic pathway then proceed to Lysogeny • Repressor also binds to DNA at specific sequences • Found multiple times in genome CONFIDENTIAL
By Utilizing computational tools integrated in BioBIKE,- A graphical programming interface that enables biologist to approach complex research questions Upstream sequences of relevant phages Objective is to locate those sites CONFIDENTIAL
Data- available for Che12, e-lambda,L5 and Bxb1 CONFIDENTIAL
Same method for L5 and Bxb1 CONFIDENTIAL
Testing Time • Apply the same technique to find to binding sites of some random phages • Packman • Shaka CONFIDENTIAL
Concluding thoughtResults yet to be analyzed CONFIDENTIAL
