Dear students,

The 2nd Test / 1st Exam grades were just released. If you want to have access to your detailed evaluation and comments in Google Forms, please send me an email. Following are the response to the multiple questions:

Concerning the sequencing step in single-end pyrosequencing: - The output of reads has a mean read length of around 350 bp
Assume that you perform the annotation of a given genome and using a gene finder you get a prediction for a model, which we will call Gene Model1. BLASTP of Gene Model 1 at NCBI yielded one hit with 100% identity, e-value of e-75 and coverage of 85%. With this data you,: Invalidate gene model 1
When using ICAT tags for MS-based proteomics, what is visualized for each peptide in the first MS step: 2 peaks

What is obtained through the use of proteome chips:All the proteins that interact with a given protein
What is obtained through ChIP-seq: All the DNA fragments that interact with a given protein
Metabolic footprinting refers to: The study of the exometabolomeThe use of Structural Proteomics for the purpose of Functional Genomics is based on the concept that:protein structure is more conserved then amino acid sequence

If you have further questions, feel free to set up a short meeting with us. 
Regards, 
Miguel Teixeira

Students, i have also released a document with some pointers for answers to the Genomics questions of the 1st Exam. This file is placed in the previous exams/tests section.
