  • Whole-exon multiple sequence alignment

    Hello guys,

    Always appreciate your active contributions to this website.
    I wish I get to a place where I can help others through this web site, too.

    The dataset I am interested in is a multiple sequence alignments of exons for some number of mammalians.
    The closest thing I can get from UCSC web site is alignments of CDS sequences over 29 mammalians (in alignment folder on Downloads page of the site).
    But what I want to have is the alignments that not only contain CDS sequences, but they also should contain UTRs, both 5-end and 3-end.

    I checked on the other directory on the same path (maf folder), but they maintain the whole-genome sequence alignment with only a small subset of species, and the involved species are changing by region. So this is not the data set I am looking for.

    Do you know where I can obtain this kind of data set in UCSC Genome browser, and if there's not, do you know why?
    I mean, in the alignment folder, they maintain a nicely composed alignments of CDS sequences over 29 mammalians (it is 29 mammalians all the time, unlike the case of maf folder). If they can do this, I cannot see any reason there shouldn't be exon alignments for the species.

    Check if xenoRefGene is what you're after.. It's called Other RefSeq under the Group "Genes and Gene Prediction Tracks". This other other species genes aligned to the selected species.

      Maybe I was not clear.
      I want multiple sequence alignments of EXONS including human, not those only of CDS sequences.
      In other words, I want to have 5' and 3' UTR alignments with the CDS sequences for the same species set (including human).

      Anyway, thank you for the reply.

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
